Personally, I speak of free software in the style of 
http://www.fsfeurope.org/documents/freesoftware.en.html rather than 
the vague term http://mjr.towers.org.uk/writing/ambigopen.html used by 
people who promote software patenting in the EU. It's important to 
emphasise the freedom to create, especially when it's threatened by 
things like the "Free Trade Agreement" between the US and Australia.

I'm glad to hear that program works for you, though. Maybe someone 
could ask them to free the software, as it doesn't look like they make 
money from it.
