It looks like a potentially good product for the
windows environment, providing integration into a
widely used IDE is probably a safe bet, however unless
you have the very latest version of windoze 98, me
etc, and the 'windows installed(TM)' installed and up
to date, you can't install it.
I gave up after ie5.5 decided i needed to pay for a
service pack.
Only time will tell.
