I do not like this software cause its a resource hog and it automatically logs you in when you do not want to. Also when you're
invisible the software exposes you still telling others online that you are not hiding from them.

Although it does have an interface that is widely considered to be lacking, it is a fairly elegant program, and is quite popular.
As far as being difficult to install on Vista, there are versions available to address such issues. The only problem that I have
face with this program is the installer. The download size is deceiving...as you are merely downloading an installer. For those of
you who are on dialup, such as me, that presents a problem, particularly if you are accustomed to using a download manager or
would like to install the program on multiple computers. My biggest issue lies in the installer; it constantly experiences
problems, from resetting the progress of the download to crashing all together. All in all, however, I give this program a rating
of four stars.
