Question - Copy of EccoExt #1

Is there any chance you have a copy of the working Ecco Ext in its zip file as it was originally supplied on the yahoo forums? I only have the executable but want to re-publish the original zip for historical purposes and to assist others in getting EccoPro working on Linux.

I've tried contacting the original author but no response.

Thanks!

What timing, I was just able to get a copy of the latest version of 4.6.7.7 from https://groups.io/g/EccoPro/files just 10 minutes ago (requires registration).

I checked the sha256 hash of the exe and it matches the one I have on my computers so looks like I'm good.

Thanks for checking!

FYI:
eccoext.exe (v4.6.7.7):

eccoext.zip from groups.io:

For people who land here, this is a comment I added to VirusTotal:

The Virus detection's of this may be false positives. This program does highly dynamic work to patch issues with an ancient executable Eccopro.exe that was last compiled back in 1997 but is still used to this day by many. This dynamic work would likely raise all kinds of flags with basic virus scanners. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecco_Pro and notes regarding Ecco Extension and Scott Rosenberg (slangmgh).
