i would also like to hear more reviews on this.

the negative ones, as stated above, were from late 2006.
the latest build from late 2007 seems to be okay.

any thoughts?

Just read about on MakeUseOf.com and I can't see how it can be Adware? It's been approved Softpedia and sates no Adware/Spyware. I tested for Portability, which showed no Registry Keys but did store data in the %APPDATA% folder, which was subsequently deleted upon exiting the program.

TESTED: Portable
