Very customizable and works well. I like the fact that it allows you to select different browser profiles from the browser picker window. The one complaint I have is that the browser picker window doesn't go away when the mouse is clicked on a different window. Some other browser pickers similar to this have that functionality. EDIT: I discovered a setting that allows the window to disappear when focus is lost.

Looks nice from the screenshots that is, looks pretty powerful too compared to some of the open source alternatives, but being picked up by various anti-virus scanners as being a trojan.

Edit: The developer has made this open source so this could be checked out, I'd probably feel more comfortable too to try it.
