that's not the point. the point is that muimaster020 *is* on the CD,
because it's referred to in an article. All i want to know is whether
there are any malicious aspect to this program that people should be
warned about.

I haven't read the article concerned so I have no idea whether it is for
or against this patch's effectiveness.
