While I applaud the effort that was probably put into this, do not run programs on your computer when you don't know where they're coming from. That said, the source code is on GitHub and it should be easy to look through and see that nothing malicious is going on here.
Edit: On a first look though the git repo I didn't find anything suspicious, but I encourage others to do the same.
That is the benefit of open-source, anyone can check out the code and see if the software is doing something malicious! Both my
ticker and
Rainmeter (
the software used to display the ticker on Windows) are open-source, safe and free to use. If you decide to try out the ticker and have any suggestions, I would be happy to hear them.
