Indeed, I was about to recommend LTSpice/SwCAD III as well. I assume
it's the same software that Ian mentioned.
http://www.linear.com/designtools/software/switchercad.jsp
It's free (as in beer), and easy to use, after you spend a few hours
reading the tutorial.
Unless Ian or someone can post instructions about how to import the
eschema netlist into LTSpice, I wouldn't bother trying. Just re-enter
the schematic into LTSpice using their schematic editor. That's the
easy part. The harder part is creating models of components that
aren't in the LTSpice library, creating stimulii waveform sources for
your circuit, adding in parasitic resistances, capacitances, and
inductances into your circuit as needed to get the simulation to run
and produce realistic results. ("Parasitic" components are the ones
you don't show on a normal schematic but which are there in real life
and sometimes affect circuit operation. For example, resistance in PCB
traces, inductance in transistor leads.)
