Only bad thing is, you must install Java and use a browser that uses Java. IE still uses Java, I forget offhand which other browsers will allow you to use Java. I've never had a problem with Java but then again I'm always paranoid when I use it.

eta: Seamonkey uses it also, which is closely related to Firefox.

eta2: Don't bother using it on your Android phone. It's broken, because it gets to the very end of the tests and stalls out on the very last step. Other people on the Netalyzr Android app site are saying the same thing. Maybe they will fix the bugs eventually.
