When I run Avast anti-virus on this programme it tells me that it contains a Trojan Horse called Win32:Spyware-gen [Trj].
Can anyone confirm that this is correct? If so, perhaps it shouldn't be on the site. (ps... thanks Andrew - your site is my top site after BBC !)

ESET always blocks with false positive! Teach that guy's that it isn't!

I used that often on XP 32bit but on Windows 7 64bit it does crash. Guess this is because of 64bit, but I can't test this either.

Great for small companies and intranets. If you are on a network with a lot of people sharing a lot of files without much control over that, it can be hard to track down the information you need. This lets you find what you need across multiple shares on multiple computers.

For those who use AdBlock, pause AdBlock before you download, (if not) you will not receive the file!

Craunch on 2013-11-24 10:00

For information I've just downloaded the portable version from the website and did not need to pause my AdBlock+.
