This is similar to this question. What I am asking though, is which LOLCODE interpreter should I pick based on these criteria:

1) Works well and is up-to-date

2) Ease of install - I've looked before and couldn't find one which I found easy to install.

Please feel free to give your suggestions and opinions, I haven't looked in a number of months and am curious as to what people think, and I look forward to learning it.

EDIT: I am just doing this to learn LOLCODE. Why? Because I can and I think it would be fun to declare variables with ICANHAZ and end programs with KTHXBAI. I'm really just curious. I would really prefer that it be as close to spec as possible. I don't care if it's open or closed source and it can run in either Windows (my desktop) or Linux (my laptop). Hope this helps!

EDIT 2: I have downloaded the LOLCODE compiler available here. However, I am having trouble figuring out some of the instructions so I am still open to any suggestions for any other interpreters/compilers.

I think it would depend on your needs. Are you looking to use LOLCODE in the enterprise? Do you need integration with .NET? Web Services? Open Source? What OS are you targeting? A wide variety of ODBC drivers or integration with Eclipse? What about IntelliSense support or a decent Emacs lol-mode? Clearly we need more information.

Isn't LOLCode in the enterprise an oxymoron? ;) :D

My friend created once LOLCODE interpreter for some project on our Univ. It requires Ruby with some gems, but I don't remember exactly which. I can update answer later when I have time to check it by myself. Here is link to github repository.
