I have retained extra content added by User:Wmnnd on conversion features. In the meantime, I am restoring this content to the article. I would think such perspectives would have to be presented next to malware concerns about this same software. Similarly if there is some argument that concerns about adware, spyware and installCore are overblown, incorrect, or should be ignored, that could be linked to and summarized using NPOV. If there were a source that clearly stated that view, I can imagine it being worth citing and referencing here. I can imagine - in an attempt to steelman - a view where the video capture features of ClipGrab are seen as worth the cost of the adware and spyware risk from installCore and other potential included programs. I don't see how a simple reversion accommodates this. It should be represented in the body and intro to the article. This is crucial, recurring information about this application. Viruses reported on the ClipGrab forum have not received a developer response. Online virus scanners report viruses and trojans in the supplied binary, including .1!c, W32/FusionCore.A.gen!Eldorado, Trojan.InstallCore.2889, W32/FusionCore.A.gen!Eldorado,. It has been described as a "browser hijacker that urges users to buy products or services from sponsors" and "a virus". Perhaps due to the dependency on installCore, versions of Clipgrab have been described as loaded with adware and malware. Installers including installCore have sometimes been classified as a potentially unwanted program (PUP) or potentially unwanted application (PUA), by some anti-malware product vendors. Quoting a recently reverted version of the page. One source of this is due to the use of the installer program installCore. Malware - specifically Potentially Unwanted Programs - are mentioned in many sources relating to ClipGrab. Would be good to have input from Wmnnd: who made a number of recent edits. I have started this section to discuss and hopefully resolve it. There seems to be an edit dispute over how descriptions of viruses and malware should be presented in this article.

Wmnnd ( talk) 15:54, (UTC) I have added more detail to the License section noting the GPL - that is clarified now. The website literally states "ClipGrab is a GPLv3-licensed Open Source project"

Clicking on "Show all download options" you’ll find the source code (listed under "Linux" - but it's the same source code for all platforms). The source code of the most recent version is also available on. Conflatuman ( talk) 22:41, 23 April 2020 (UTC) ĬlipGrab has always been licensed and still is licensed under the GPLv3. Obviously it's a user friendly website but it's also to the extent of not providing enough information on the actual software, let alone the source code.

There's none of the usual proof via checksums etc either.

I have just been through the website and see no evidence presented by it that the software is open source. That source link is not shown anywhere on the website.

MartinezMD ( talk) 20:32, 3 August 2014 (UTC) License - GPLv3 but no source code accessible? Ĭan anyone link to the source code so that we can be sure of the status as open source? I can't find it anywhere. The installer program currently contains a Trojan, so be cautious.
