The program is easy to use and stable. It does work and (probably) does what they say it should do. But there is NO CUSTOMER SUPPORT. I have sent about 10 emails up till now and I got no answer.

Although the software is free and even public domain maybe, it is completely useless to you without a 'ThatIP' account, which costs at least 10 USD/yr
