I just did, with no problems.
FYI, I use Microsoft Security Essentials which I have found reliable without being trigger-happy.

Thanks Alex.
So, I’ll DL the software on another machine (with a different security suite), double-check and then see, if I can define exceptional rules in F-Secure to be able to use Brainstorm on my main machine.

Dear Alexander Deliyannis
Your suggestion worked and I am now happily using Brainstorm again to write my draft for an NSERC grant, with UR naturally.
Thank you very much.

@Alexander Deliyannis
Thanks for your help and best wishes. I cannot leave your earlier comment to rest in peace. You suggested that Brainstorm may not be abandonware yet. This have given me an insatiable unreasonable totally crazy hope. Is there anything you can divulge? Are there hints? Will it be springtime again??????
By the way Brainstorm even plays nicely with my Dragon naturally speaking 12, which I always use when posting. Dragon dictates directly into Brainstrom without the dictation box popping up; and you can set Brainstorm to do a new edit when enter is pressed so dictation can run on for paragraph after paragraph.

ps One of the reason I switched to a mac last year was because of the nice outliners available on that platform (I bought them all - or it seems like it). I switched back to PC because Vista was superceeded by win 7 and especially because Dragon nat speak is so much better than the mac dragon dictate (my workhorse). Then I rediscovered Brainstorm and realised it is so much better than even the mac outliners, though I miss some of the polish of omnioutliner.
