Pros
It is free
Cons
Thanks for the trojan! Also tried to put a "smiley toolbar" in the package. No install instructions.
Summary
Maybe I'll change my mind once I finally get this extension added to eclipse, but I'm a little ticked about the trojan right now!
No install program and no install instruction

Pros
Don't know - couldn't get it to run inside the designated Eclipse.
Cons
Couldn't get it to run inside the designated Eclipse sub-folder. The only install instruction only tells you to extract all files to the Eclise folder. No executable and no other instructions ... zero.

Paid but didn't get a licence key
