Re: Advertising in article - not sure

I'm not sure.
The question gives a link to one of those "PC optimizer" apps that I never trust.
The poster joined today, this is his first post, but he has 552 rep points.

So I'd suspect this is a banned account resurfacing to post spam.
What do you think?

This new article Use Google Translation and LSACreator to localize your applications.[^] includes links to a paid version of the app, which smells like advertising to me. The article itself is a thin shell over this[^] one.

Yeah, that's why I held back from flagging the article. Wanted to see what the community thought.

Not sure if I'm about to burn my fingers here -

I would agree with Griff here because the free version (for non-commercial use) has actually no functional restrictions..

..but I'm wondering about this article (and his other two about the same product): Workflow Engine .NET - alternative to Windows Workflow Foundation[^] because the only free version is a trial version and is so limited that it's basically useless.
