Well the first thing this software wants to do is act as a server to the internet. This is from Zonealrm. So I guess the creator has imbeded spyware into it. That being the case I would stay away. After I refuse to let it connect to the internet the program will not launch a window or do anything. So needless to say its going by by. There are a few interesting things in the folder that holds the textures but none of them are very good. I think the authors use of a semi-transparent .tga for the flare to be an interesting choice. But other than that I couldn't get it to do anything.
