I suspect it is. Interestingly, it used to crash with JAWS in fact, it tended to wreck systems running JAWS. If it's a cut down version of Lookout, it's good to see they have sorted these JAWS related issues out. This is only hearsay though. All I can say is after hearing it, I never tried installing lookout on my machine. You installed it Dorris anyway and seemed to have no ill affects which is great.

The information on the site wasn't very explicit.
