Issues with DeskFlag software?

[David Bennett]

Several employees in the library installed the free DeskFlag software from Tiger Technologies (http://www.deskflag.com) version 1.0.3.  I've noticed several new problems and glitches with those PCs and I wondered what other experiences have been.

The deskflag software is not a screensaver, it waves a flag in the right hand corner of the screen.

I've read through the FAQ at http://www.deskflag.com/faq.html and it says it can take up to 2.1 MB of memory resources and less than 4% of the processor time.  I have been unable to find any third party reviews that are critical.

I hate to be the Grinch, but I feel this software introduces more problems than it is worth.  Please let me know if the deskflag software is introducing any glitches at your institution.
