How to remove the Email Marketing by WP Autoresponder

I started using the WP Autoresponder plugin which is an awesome plugin which every blog should have. The only issue that I had was that the form embedded a link to the authors website. See the below image:

I couldn’t find any options to get rid of this in the plugin and it’s something that shouldn’t really be on by default as it violates some of the wordpress plugin guidelines. So I did some researching and it seems like some people has the same problem. Well firstly, the forms doesn’t look very professional so it was time for me to remove it. So what I did was to edit  following file: wp-content/plugins/wp-responder-email-autoresponder-and-newsletter-plugin/forms.php file. Delete lines 474-476 which has:

<td colspan=”2″ align=”center”><?php if ($enableForm) { ?>
<a href=”http://www.wpresponder.com”>Email Marketing by WP Autoresponder</a>
<?php } ?></td>

I also had to delete the following line 383 from the file  wpresponder.php

echo base64_decode(“PGJyIC8+DQo8YnIgLz4NCjxka…”);

That seems to have worked for me.
