Macsbug is a for sale product of Apple. You can find out all you want to
know in the documentation when you buy it. 

By the way, it doesn't catch all crashes. Only the easiest ones, and even
then you have to reboot to be sure it has all been corrected. I would not
advise buying Macsbug to be used only for the purpose of catching crashes.
