I must have an amazing springform pan, because I've made a ton of cheesecakes, and I have never had one leak.  I'd recommend the brand, but I got it at a secondhand store.

Mfamom - Let me know how your no-sugar version works out.  I would be interested to try it.

I made my "sugarfree" cheesecake.  Even though i use sweet/low in coffee and drink diet coke, i really taste that artificial flavoring in baked stuff. 
also, my cheese cake was totally flat, only about an inch tall!  Anyone know what could have made that happen?

When sugar is mixed into butter or cream cheese, like in cheesecake or cookies, the sharp crystals poke little microscopic holesinto the fat, causing a leavening effect.  I would guess artificial sweeteners are not so sharp.

i finally figured out why my cheesecake is falling.  I was removing it from the oven as soon as it was finished cooking. 
I realized a lot of recipes say to turn oven off and leave in oven for quite awhile.
I've make two in the past few weeks.  turned off oven when finished, cracked the door and left it in there and it didn't fall flat.
