Warnings
The author has evaluated Version 3.1 for almost a year and is currently evaluating version 4.0. With any software, a reader must ask some basic questions:
 * Is it genuine?
 * Is the website reliable and safe?
 * Is the author respected in the GW community?
 * Does it look legitimate?

Even then, there is always a risk to use any software. The intent of this discussion is to describe a software that the author has evaluated for almost a year. The fact that other players have evaluated the software and commented on it in other forums, show that it is not a totally unknown thing floating in cyberspace. From earlier responses to this subject, it has been clearly established that this program is not widely known in North America. Therewith the need of this article. Light always come through knowledge and prejudice born in ignorance.
