    I don't see too many of us Canadians winning. On the spin2win wheel it stopped for me on the iphone for about 2 seconds than started spinning again. My boyfriend played and it stopped on the wiifit and then started spinning again also. I enjoy playing the games but is this rigged or what?

    Iwon would be terrific if the games would always work properly. I haven't been able to get a game to load into the target frame in forever now, and about 1/3 of the time, they don't load at all. One game in particular freezes up after round 10, and in spite of them telling me via email that they were working on it about a year ago, it still hasn't been fixed. I've also had several occasions in which I was playing a game and had racked up a nice, tidy score, only to suddenly lose connection or something and lose all the coins/entries I would have accrued (and the spins of the jackpot wheel as well). Very, very frustrating! I can't help but think that if they weren't so intent on offering the advertisers such fancy ads on their site, the games might just actually work. And yes, I know they can only offer the prizes thanks to their sponsors... but what good is the site if the sponsors' target audience can't get it to work?

    This site has a nice variety of games, but sometimes the games don't load properly even when I use Internet Explorer. Winning anything at all except for the coins is too difficult, which is why I haven't been on that website for awhile. I never use the email service because of the limited amount of storage. Also the banner ads tend to be rather annoying especially when you are in the middle of a game.  The spinning wheel is a joke and so is the prize machine. I don't see how people can win anything at all on those.  Even the extra spins after playing one of the games is joke.  I haven't won a thing on that website for the last two years except for a useless $5 amazon gift certificate and coins.  No cash! Overall, the website is nicely laid out with lots of games in case you're ever bored.

    Very poor email provider that delivers unsolicited messages to the user's inbox. Spam filter is useless. Poor response to complaints about spam and limits ability to block senders to only 50 total. Does not permit user to block senders within the iwon system which is a huge source of spam.

    I'm not so sure that you can really win with iwon.... emails are never returned and the spin machine is a joke...

    I love using Iwon- even though I have not won $10,000 yet- but I have hope and faith that I will. My favorite thing is looking at my horoscope- it is always spot on- waiting for the day when it says I will win the $$.

    It isn`t the best search engine but if you want the basics in a portal and a chance to maybe win some money it`s pretty good! Doen`t play well with the Opera browser though!

    IWON gets 4.5 stars from me. Compliments Google. The “fun” search engine. Makes surfing an adventure. Very forgiving when it comes to deciphering entries. I’m one of those spellers from hell; in addition, I sometimes get my thoughts confused in how I want to enter my inquiry. IWON cuts to the chase and I’m good to go! BUT! Here are some of my pet peeves: (why IWON lost a star in my ratings) 1. Easy to be distracted and waste time. Sensory overload of goodies 2. POP-UP crap invades an otherwise excellent search engine/portal. You’d better by quick with your fingers and sign in else; you’ll get a time consuming pop up. Overall, I really like IWON and use it as my homepage. If IWON/CBS would take the hint and deep 6 their obnoxious pop-ups, which slow down their normally fast system, I’d upgrade them to 5 stars in a “New York Minute!”

    I guess this is a good idea but the rules are way too complicated. I used it for about 3 days then stopped because each link is only worth like 4 points. I don't even read the links I just would click em' to get the points and the rules seemed to penalize you for clicking over the daily limit.

    This new search engine is good enough to rival the giants of Yahoo and MSN search. It is a great search engine that has an appealing layout, of which you can customize to however you want it. What makes it special is the the fact that you can get the opportunity to win prizes and money everytime you make a search.

    Am I ever going to win the $10,000? I ask myself that everyday. I want to win so bad. I heard about iwon a long time ago and started using it about a year ago. I do really like iwon. I think it is close to as good as Yahoo. I must say though, that I wouldn't use it so much if I didnt' earn points to potentially win $10,000. Now, I realize that millions of people are probably doing the same thing but I have this sliver of hope that makes me keep going. It is getting bigger and bigger with more and more tools and options. I like it but I am a routine person and Yahoo is what I am used to for the most part.

    Good site to check the news and features in the morning while finishing my coffee. I wouldn't use as a search engine. It is easy to move around in. Able to get the basics to start the day.

    The most crass business model on the planet. "Come to my site, you may win a lot of cash!" If you were an advertiser, would you really pay top dollar to serve ads to these kinds of visitors?

    Hey, what other search engine can you go to and be automatically entered to win $10 Thousand a day, 1 Million a month or 10 Million a year?
