18 month project is winding down. I suspect it will have 1 use in the next 4 years we are supporting it.

The tool is basically a copy of the S3 browser, only shittier. The license for the S3 browser is only 20 bucks btw.

I used to sell windows shareware, a series of apps that composed music and loops etc. I got really sick of finding cracked versions of my apps online, usually a day or two after I'd released something. So I wrote and released an app called "Magic Text Box" which consisted of just a single form with one text box on it. Less than a day later, a cracked version of it showed up.
