Ghostzilla was originally launched as a [[shareware]] project priced at $19.95 USD. The project then became [[freeware]] and later open source.{{citation needed|date=April 2012}} From May 2004 until January 2005, the project was removed from public view due to a copyright claim from [[Mozilla]]. It later returned with code directly derived from Mozilla's open source, excluding the core proprietary library used to create minimal pages and [[Colorfulness|desaturated]] colors. It also came with warnings about the potential for misuse. In February 2007, the site was removed.
