Nice tool that will save any file in Adobe PDF format: just install
and "print" onto PDF.
Unfortunately, a copycat program is also available with the same
name, for questionable reasons.
Because of this, Software Informer misreports that an update is
available, which in fact is the other program!
The "real thing" is on SourceForge! And it's Free and, as far as I
can say, safe.

The newest version of PDFCreator is only 0.9.5 (not 4.1.0.0)!

It looks like there is another program with the same name, which
maybe explains the incorrect version number
