Yes i tried to contacted them via the contact form (website), but i never
got a reply. I even did a whois query on slideproducer.com and now i got
an email address. (***still thinking, what to write them***).

I am quite sure this person has used my source code, because
PhotoFilmStrip has the ability to send a bug report if an unexpected error
occurred (of course when the user presses the send button). No personal
information is transmitted. Only application name, version and a
traceback. I received three bug reports where the app name was
"SlideProducer". I did some "googleing" and i came across the
slideproducer website.

Yes probably i really have to buy (my own?) software to see what the
package contains.
