It's a subjective checker that is at irregular intervals advertized by its
author in alt.html and regularly revealed to be highly questionable. Having
been sold for about ten years under an intentionally false name (it was not
a validator), its author has now claimed to have added a validator to the
"CSE HTML Validator".
Check Google Groups for alt.html discussions on this phoney "validator".

Sounds like malware - adware or worse. It's hardly worth its price.
TANSTAAFL applies to a high degree.
