Version: RSS Bandit 1.6.0.1
"Seems to work, but flagged my anti-spyware"
Pros: It seemed to be a good GUI and have some neat functions, however I never used them, see Cons.
Cons: Many things I did not like.
1) No EULA (end user liscence agreement). Why not? Something is fishy here. On a side note on this, this was a featured download, and right beneath was an article on keeping your computer safe, stating that you shouldnt install software without an EULA.
2) As soon as I started RSSBandit, Spyware Terminator's realtime proctection popped up with a high threat level.
3) Firewall popped up, and my firewall is set pretty liberal, I almost never have to allow a program to access the internet, so when it asks, I question.
So no EULA, and two unusal flags popping up. No thank you. Add one and at least I will feel better about installing.

Than it should say that during installation.

Considering that this software was likely designed in a Linux oriented environment, it operates under a GNU General Public License. In other words, it is free for distribution and it allows you to modify the software as you see fit for your needs. Lookup GNU General Public License for more info. EULA's are: "The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. ".
