As the previous poster, I still contend that it's been removed. You posted the page, which still exists, so they didn't remove the page (I didn't state that the page was removed). What I stated was that the original page that linked to the "buy" page has been edited to remove the "buy" link.Blyth wrote: Sun Aug 10, 2025 6:11 amCorrect it's been like that for days but the previous poster said it had been removed, as you can see it hasn't been removed, lots of misinformation going around.datatracer wrote: Sun Aug 10, 2025 12:23 am The link to purchase a key on that page leads to https://store.payproglobal.com/checkout ... iqSejznbAH, which currently does not work.
Where was it originally?

My comment still stands, someone has been active to edit the website to remove the path to the buy page, but still hasn't updated anyone.
Good question, I think I'm suffering from false memory.smol_birb wrote: Mon Aug 11, 2025 3:06 pmWhere was it originally?

Same here. I thought that I had come across the page at some point, but cannot remember where the link was/is.hobbyhorse wrote: Mon Aug 11, 2025 3:52 pmGood question, I think I'm suffering from false memory.smol_birb wrote: Mon Aug 11, 2025 3:06 pmWhere was it originally?

best reply on this thread. It works for now.magsol76 wrote: Mon Aug 11, 2025 12:59 pm A lot of speculation but nobody knows anything until we hear from or about Mike. The workaround with the date works for me (just change the month to july and enter the existing code again if it doesnt work). Note to self: save the existing julycode.

You're correct as far as your history goes. However, the POINT of your comment escapes me. Do you really think things have changed much in Russia? ... perhaps more criminality, but other than that: meh.There are definitely changes being made. Someone is watching, reviewing, and has been fairly busy. [REF]smol_birb wrote: Mon Aug 11, 2025 4:20 pmSame here.

As I said, the copies of the site in Wayback Machine’s archive also don’t have that link to the payment page. I did do a Whois lookup, and the site admin’s contact info is currently there.
Don't wait too long to save the "July code". In case there's any doubt remaining, someone is making changes to the website, changes to the "WHOIS" data, and nothing prevents them from making changes to the forum. ... the "change date" feature clearly doesn't work properly, or has been over-ridden.magsol76 wrote: Mon Aug 11, 2025 12:59 pm A lot of speculation but nobody knows anything until we hear from or about Mike.

Thanks for this recommendation I had no idea this existedtheoldfarter wrote: Sun Aug 10, 2025 7:41 amI have started using this free tool:dg11375 wrote: Sun Aug 10, 2025 2:16 am I use handbrake. It is more complicated and not as good as MAKEMKV but it is available at no cost and receives updates from time to time.
