I just went to the GW Micro site and performed the exact same steps I posted about 5 minutes prior to posting my response to you.
I certainly would not arbitrarily take the time to point this out without having verified the aspects are accurate.

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 Even if you could get it, keep in mind that some apps might be outdated, or even rather sluggish under modern usage.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.
