Epson Godzilla

Does anyone know what this EWPBoot program is that wants to run?



It looks like a great model to have, but I hate to run programs that I have no idea what they are.

It's located at ゴジラオリジナルペーパークラフトを作ろう! | Webプリワールド | エプソン

well, I have never seen so much crap on a webpage in all my internet travels!

and whatever it is, its an .exe file and thats never a good thing.

another site lists it as some malicious thing that attacks Windows.

it is probably just a printing or file downloading app, so epson can log your IP and identity for future advertising targeting.

but...no paper model is worth the risk!

go-jira is a monster!

I'm with you guys. Great-looking model but not worth the risk. You just never know. Epson is a reputable company, sells great printers but....not on my computer.

It seems that the model is only available for download for purchasers of printers from Epson in Japan.

Epson Japan has done that more often, they did it with the different Angels from NeoGenesis
