1) You get a screen telling you that you have a 10 day trial.
2) You try to use the app, but it's actually limited like a demo.
What is it now, Shareware or Demo?
That aside, it uses a lot of RAM and thanks to its restrictions, does not give me enough reasons to pay 50 dollars for something like this.
Seriously developer, shorten your alerts' dialogues and create a proper trial.

In the Mac App Store you have the warranty that the app was tested by Apple (it's the same software we distribute here but you have the Apple warranty)
Thank you

The app on the MacApp store is the same as you're offering here, which means all the problems I posted about above are still there. So I really don't understand the point you're making.
In the past URL Extractor was full working from the start. We had very low level of sales. Changing to the actual shape increase sales by x10.
We prefer this way to handle things, the alternative would be to stop URL Extractor development.
When you extract URL any 'Please purchase a license' string in the extraction list is a true URL extracted, replaced at the last time by the license system, so if you get them (the long list of 'please purchase a license', the software works, plus you can see the first URLs visualized and available in full plain text.
The problem could be if you think the software is a fake. It isn't. If the app is in the App Store you know a team of people at Apple tested it, there are no fake app at the Apple Store.
Purchasing from the App Store gives you this additional warranty if you don't trust the developer.
(YES at the App Store URL Extractor is the same you have here but that is exactly what I wanted to point out)
There is no way to convince us to release a version that works before paying, we already did it and we know people doesn't pay for it even if they really find the App really useful.
URL Extractor in some way from a marketing point of view is a lot different from other App, believe me. This is the reason it is marketed in a lot restrictive way then the others.
As example we have other Apps such as Password Repository or Calcline or (well we have 21 and growing app for Mac OS X) that are a lot usable without licensing them. The problem with URL Extractor is that this way doesn't work with it.
URL Extractor is a lot particular in many way, as example is one of the software with the high level of fraud purchase attempt... we have to use an approach a bit different with it, even if we know honest users can be a bit discouraged by this but often they understand it.

Really, I come close to believe that this is a scam.
Downloaded it and tried to extract http:// from a simple rtfd file ... it didn't do a thing. It just laid there like dead meat.
Threw it instantly in the Trash bin and wouldn't even waste a second on this crap ... 50 bucks he wants for that? He would need to pay me 100 for a lost half an hour ;-)

As avery one knows Apple test product before inserting it in the App Store.
This is the proof URL Extractor works and works well
If not enough URL Extractor has a large user base of paying satisfied users all over the world.
Please avoid useless (maybe interested to divert users to other products?) comment as this one.
Really.
Thank you

Email Extractor, which I have been using for some time, on the same folder gave me 1,138 valid addresses, 19,204 bad addresses and 5,756 duplicate addresses at less than half the price!
I do like the "web" and "search engine" options, but I haven't tried these. Most of my requirements are with files.
The price is 'out of whack' compared to similar products.
If you like you can purchase URL Extractor from the Apple Mac App Store, it is a full working version from the start.
Thank you.

Stay home; make better software, and respond to comments here within a time line appropriate to the posts.
We can't do nothing about it.
Regarding the technical quality of the app we continuously improve it and we have a lot of satisfied effective users

__MACOSX

Try using another browser to download the file.

In those cases, I've just removed the .zip file extension and the file opens fine.
That may work in this instance.
