Small note: if you've got McAfee ViruScan installed and heuristics 
checking is turned on, it may flag this file as having a virus with no 
name. I suspect this is a false alarm (mind you, this is the same virus 
scanner that thinks most .tar.gz files [eg. the Linux kernel source 
tar.gz file] I have also contain viruses with no name...)

Otherwise it's a pretty good program for SCP purposes.
