It is not stealth, it adds an uninstall entry and a pile of registry keys.

Viru detectedon 64bit file. I cannot download it.

@Loreto: EMDB has been in our database since 2016 and there have been no other such reports.

I'd advise you to try to download from the homepage and check any executables through virustotal.com/ before posting any scant reports...

After Robert Jan van der Waals, the origin developer of Data Crow, last year announced the end of his project (http://www.datacrow.net/#news), now it seems like it could continiue... https://sourceforge.net/p/datacrow/discussion/650036/

mimik on 2020-07-21 00:03

Hmmm, the first activities by the new main project developer were very promising. But by now, his last activity on sourceforge has been one year ago, as well as the last activity of the origin developer Robert Jan van der Waals. No goodby or something like this. See you tomorow and they were never seen again...

Data Crow development has been picked up again since end of year 2022 by, well, me (the original developer of Data Crow).
Great to see the updates also appear on this site, much appreciated! Expect more updates this year as I continue improving Data Crow.

A great Video Cataloguer, let down only for the lack of documentation and online support. Have more than 400 DVDs and tried both the apps in this category, stayed with PVD. Nimble and quick, doesn´t have all the importers that AMC has, but makes finding blanks and editing a breeze. Recomended.

Miguel Angel on 2011-04-22 09:33

Una base de datos para películas muy buena, sobre todo, la posibilidad de importar los datos y carátulas de páginas web.
- Falta solamente la traducción al español.
Gracias, thank you.
Congratulations !!!

Apparently development on this has ended, which is a shame. You can still find it on Softpedia: http://www.softpedia.com/get/Office-tools/Diary-Organizers-Calendar/bookTome.shtml

Hugh0202 on 2013-05-07 20:27

This software expects each book to be added individually, or from an imported table. It cannot walk a tree of your existing library and build its database from that.
This makes it pretty much useless for anyone with a sizable library already.

I installed it jsut as the instructions state, I also added a file called 'prefs.ini' just like the instructions state HOWEVER, the program doesn't write ANYTHING to the prefs.ini Instead, it still writes to the appdata\roaming folder on the C: drive.

This should be removed from the database. Neither the website, nor the link via archive.org do work, so there's no way to download. I guess the project is plain dead.

Craunch on 2015-06-21 13:18

The archive.org mirror link to http://ls.iatp.org.ua/download/files/mylib093ex.zip still works

Craunch on 2015-06-21 13:30

Oops! I spoke too soon - sorry.

Following the mirror site link from archive.org appears to start a download, but it stops after 125.5Kb has downloaded.

Following the link I gave above leads to a website in a Cyrillic language which I cannot read. If anyone can read it, it might explain what has happened.
