nagware and stupidity
nagware blows. Altova XMLSpy Home edition would be great, if it wouldn’t keep rubbing in your face the fact that it’s not pro or enterprise, and if it wouldn’t insist on running a license enforcement service and promise to phone home in the eula.
In other news, people who give you step-by-step instructions to turn off the winxp firewall (because you don’t need it despite not being tech-savvy enough to figure out how to turn it off yourself) should not be trusted with the security of your computer. That’s just irresponsible.
