Normally, you would have some sort of audit trail back to a developer or company or something.

Even though it has been around a long time, in this day and age especially, it's very odd. Not even a country of origin for this software. There is no engagement from a developer or company that I can find at all. I saw several reports of folks getting no response from the email. Apart from a generic email address for support that gets published on the site, I can't really find anything. I wanted to learn a little bit more about this application, but despite my best Google-fu, I didn't have much luck. On Wikipedia, it instead shows 'FastStone Soft.' On the website, you can find 'FastStone Corporation' as the entity behind it.

There are some companion programs, as well, from the same place like FastStone Capture. The program has been around for quite some time, and had a recent update in August to version 7.7. I was recently exploring some various image software offerings, and quite a few folks showed interest in the FastStone Image Viewer program.
