the main page is still there.
but with firefox the app central page will generate a error report and you can
not go any further.
with i e i do get the certificate error but can continue to the app central
page when you egnore the error.

There is no more GW Micro homepage. I went to look for it a long time ago
and couldn't find it. Pam.

Though downloading apps from App Central never required any password or
other identification, this kind of warnings should always make red
lights come on.
Either the site is just insecure, and will never be renewed, due to FS
letting WinEyes die out. Or, someone has hacked the site, and might
eventually have hacked the apps found there as well.
Sum of it all:
Stay clear. Whatever is wrong with the GWMicro homepage, all guesses
would be that you will never see them fixed. Only reason why it even
still is possible to find any such site, would be no less than a
guesswork. Likely it only shows how little FS even bothers, since they
have not even closed the server altogether, I should think. Next will be
this list, which might break without any further notice. Either because
some kind of subscribed service from the GW team will expire, or FS
remembers to pull the plug.
No, I am not trying to be negative; just trying to let you know that
likely your warning message is all perfectly right. You are warned, and
should heed that message.
How to best obtain the apps you are looking for? Give us a list, and see
if you will receive the installers for each and every of the apps you
were used to benefit from. Likely someone here, or on the other WinEyes
list, will have the installer backed up somewhere. Further, i do seem to
recall someone here on the list, recently posting a link to a Dropbox
collecdtion of the app central. Even if you could get it, keep in mind
that some apps might be outdated, or even rather sluggish under modern
usage. In such cases, you are left to contact the app developer
directly, hoping they have some updates for you.
Whether we want to or not, we will have to face the fact that WinEyes is
slowly being phased out. App Central has not been reliable for several
months, and it's final does not surprise at all. Only surprise is, how
long they let it stay oparative.

Hi All,
In a blunder of trying to create a mobile version of Win-Eyes 9.5.4, I
re-installed the mobile copy to my desktop. So, I re-installed the normal
version again. Everything is running ok, however, when I start up the
computer, I get the app update notice. I try to install the updates, but
nothing happens. I tried going to APP Central from the Win-Eyes menu and
received the following notice. I have not tried to go to the unsecured site.
