"Norton found a Trojan in it"
Version: WirelessKeyView 1.60
Pros
Didn't run it...see "Cons"
Cons
When I attempted to run this, Norton reported that it contained the ADH.2 trojan virus. Since Norton has never reported a virus in any other downloaded software over the 5 years I've used it, I chose to believe it.
Summary
Infected....wouldn't run it.

"Super-useful one use tool"
Version: WirelessKeyView 1.56
Pros
Easy to use, gets the job done.
Cons
Some AntiVirus programs flag it as a trojan when the worst they should be flagging it as is a hacker tool, but even that is enough to put off people who don't know what's going on. Visit the developer's site for a post on this issue.
Summary
WirelessKeyView is the kind of utility that you'd only pull out if one of your relatives had lost the piece of paper with their WiFi password on it and then call you up to 'fix the problem'. I think i've used it something like 3 times in the space of 5 years, so it's not really a money spinner, but thankfully the author is giving it away for free.
In the end it's down to whether you trust CNet enough to have tested it and found it malware free. -

"Works exactly as it should!"
Version: WirelessKeyView 1.50
Pros
Saved my butt! The keys to all of the connections your computer has memorized are available. If you know how to discern which key is the one to use (for example, the WEP connection's network key is in Hex format, while the WPA2-PSK connections' keys are Ascii), it's super easy to read! Took less than a second to get the info I needed.
Cons
Nothing! It was super quick and super helpful to me!
Summary
It's true; the program DOES come up as a "potentially harmful" program by my antivirus, but stay calm; all it does is look at your computer's networks and displays them. It doesn't harm your computer in ANY way. It's safe!
So if you need to find your computer's network key quickly and easily, this is definitely the program to use! I created an account just to review this particular download! -
