Copyrights last for a long time.

That site is Russian, need I say any more.

I used Pathminder extensively in the middle 1980s into the 90s.  It was strictly MS-DOS and was very useful in tracking my computer usage.  I understand a Windows 3.1 version came out; but, was not commercially sucessful.
 
What I'd like to know if there are any products similar to it?  It kept a log of what programs I'd used and the length of time running them.  As a CPA, I definitely have a need for this.
 
BTW, this site has a free download of the "abandoned" pathminder:  (if the link is removed search for it at Censored):
 
Link removed.

MODERATOR EDIT:
Links to copyrighted software and site which publishes copyrighted software removed. [/COLOR]

Hearingthe concept of this pathminder i now want to know if there's similiar more up-to-date products (free or otherwise)?

Next person who posts a link to PathMinder or a site were it can be downloaded from gets banned.

I removed the link for a reason, do not re-post it!

If you believe that the said software has been released to the public domain or copyright is unenforceable then post some strong reliable evidence indicating this and I might reconsider.

Yeah, guys, if you're going to do it anyways, please keep that shit to PMs until some precedent is established. *hint hint*

it is taking the piss though to add a link into a thread when you can see that the link has already been removed by a moderator. that's the sort of thing that deserves a ban in fact.

well, i received an email from somebody with further comments about this software, i'll withhold his name since that seems to be the reason he's emailed, rather than signed up on the board, anyway, here's what he said:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We were shooting the breeze around the office on a Friday and I
mentioned PathMinder in a conversation. I googled to find out what
happened and ran across your forum. I really didn't want to join
because I am afraid of Bill Gates (jk), but thought you might want to
post some info for the poor guy who started trying to find out what it
was.

PathMinder was a textbased semi-gui solution to the limitations of DOS
which had its demise written on the release of Windows 3.0. History is
actually on Wikipedia. I used it as standard operating equipment on
all my client's machines because no matter where they were when they
called me for service, I could give them a precise set of keystrokes
that would help me solve their problem. Those were the days. People
still aren't any smarter, too bad nothing exists like that anymore.

Good luck tilting at the windmill that is Microsoft.
