While this app does have its merits, Leopard does most everything this product does. If you don't want to automatically join open networks, just uncheck "Ask to join new networks" in the Airport pane in the Network System Preferences. Holding Option while clicking the Airport menu extra will tell you the MAC address, channel, RSSI, and transmit rate of the network you're currently connected to. And if you want to disconnect from a network without connecting to another, just turn Airport off. (Why would you want to leave it on if you're not using it?)

"(Why would you want to leave it on if you're not using it?)" - well, for me it's because there's a signal that I can barely catch from my apartment, and sometimes disconnecting and reconnecting helps.
