Who's gonna install this puppy? I'd do it, but I'm hesitant to install on my work pc given the warning, and my home compy is a mac.

We've had a few installations (including myself). From some poking and prodding, it looks like it's relatively harmless - at certain times ordained by the cosmos, it does something with updating the prayer file. You probably won't see much traffic due to it - my packet sniffer hasn't picked up too much.

I'm so glad you guys are here. The chances of me installing anything like that on my computer are zero.
I fight a ceaseless battle with trojans and malware.

It looks like they ran it through a translator that translated it from english to some other language and back again. I used to know of a site that would do that, it was fun to play with. ^.^
