Can Muzzy be helpful for a child with autism for studying languages?

I mean a highly functional autistic child of 7 with PDD NOS diagnosis. Does anyone have an experience in studying any foreign language with Muzzy? Can you recommend another program?Can Muzzy be helpful for a child with autism for studying languages?
I have never heard of "Muzzy" however, I do know a lot about PDD NOS. One caution I would give is that, even though the child may seem to have good language, kids on the spectrum often have a really hard time with the social aspects of language and they often do not understand non-literal meanings. A second language could make that even more confusing. This site has a lot of really great articles on autism spectrum disorders, including PDD NOS http://doban-autismarticles.blogspot.com鈥?/a>
