@smaragdus: all fixed, thanks for that

The help links in Texter do not work and returns 404. No explanation of the features, and thus most of the features are useless since not documented.

@Torb - well the program is over 10 years old and hasn't been updated and no doubt some webpages have changed - the source code is now at https://github.com/adampash/texter/ (where you can see it is no longer under development)

Not only site is dead long time ago, it's not stealth starting from Windows NT, saving settings in user profile, so entry must be deleted.
Please downvote

It's probably just a false positive, but ClamAV detects Trojan.Nota in this. Couple of other AV scanners (not big names) detect Backdoor.Win32.Celine (.zip file the program comes in was run through both Jotti's and VirusTotal).

Andrew Lee on 2007-04-14 08:13

You are getting false positive because the EXE is UPX compressed. It is a common problem. Try "upx -d xtractor.exe", then scan again.

This applications website is long dead.

All my searches are fruitless

The Waybackmachine does not have this application on any of the available pages.
