Does Heidoc no longer work?

Test it and see ? The tool is re-released at regular intervals,
to counteract Microsoft meddling. As content is retired on
the actual Microsoft sourcing server, the menu on Heidoc
has a smaller and smaller list of categories.

You will need to get the most recent version, read the
release info, to get some idea what the author of Heidoc
is dealing with (this week).

Heidoc still works, but the menu could be smaller than before.

*******

Heidoc contains a coin miner, a coin miner provided by a
certain coin miner SDK. In other words, it tries to be
obvious and up-front about what it's doing.

The tool will ask you (politely) whether you will allow the
coin miner to run (for the duration of the time you allow
Heidoc to run on your system). Heidoc only need run for five
minutes or less, to copy a couple URLs using the copy buttons,
into Notepad or Firefox. Once Heidoc fakes a session with the
Microsoft server, and gets the URLs, you can dismiss Heidoc
for the hours it takes Firefox to do the actual download.

The presences of the coin miner SDK, could set off your various
AV softwares.

I can't really guess what fractions of a penny the guy gets
from doing that, but I suppose it's better than trying to
coat the interface in spam adverts.
