Just a note, not against their software, but they sell a program URL Helper which is a notorious copy of my URL Snooper program (they even stole the text directly word for word from my help manual for URL Snooper and used it for their webpage, though they may have changed it a bit recently)... So just be cautious when buying stuff from them.

Yeah,it's a clone (rip) for sure. :(

The thing that has grabbed my attention about them was they're the only ones to record streaming mov files with
Mov Recorder.

well to be clear - they didnt steal my code, and i have nothing against them for copying the basic functionality of url snooper.  my only gripe was they could have been a little less obvious about it and writen their own description/help instead of copying+pasting mine  :huh:

recording streaming .mov files is quite an accomplishment if they are doing it - sounds worth checking out; i know a lot of people have expressed a desire for a program that can do that..

wow, thats funny right there, taking freeware site text, and putting it on a paid site with a program that from what I understand does basicly the same thing as the freeware program does.  ;D
