I just checked, and the article you reference is covered by the Code Project Open Licence (CPOL), which you agreed to when you used the code in your application: CPOL: Code Project Open License[^]
And the CPOL is very, very clear on the subject:
Quote: Representations, Warranties and Disclaimer. THIS WORK IS PROVIDED "AS IS", "WHERE IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OR GUARANTEES. YOU, THE USER, ASSUME ALL RISK IN ITS USE, INCLUDING COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT, PATENT INFRINGEMENT, SUITABILITY, ETC. AUTHOR EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, MERCHANTABLE QUALITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR ANY WARRANTY OF TITLE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR THAT THE WORK (OR ANY PORTION THEREOF) IS CORRECT, USEFUL, BUG-FREE OR FREE OF VIRUSES. YOU MUST PASS THIS DISCLAIMER ON WHENEVER YOU DISTRIBUTE THE WORK OR DERIVATIVE WORKS.
Indemnity. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Author and the Publisher from and against any claims, suits, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal or attorneys’ fees) resulting from or relating to any use of the Work by You.
Limitation on Liability. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE AUTHOR OR THE PUBLISHER BE LIABLE TO YOU ON ANY LEGAL THEORY FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS LICENSE OR THE USE OF THE WORK OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF THE AUTHOR OR THE PUBLISHER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
So I suspect that regardless of the cause of your charges - and I have no access to any information about them - you will have to bear them on your own.
But I would note that it has been downloaded 357 times in just under a year, and you are the first person that we know has experienced this. Occam's razor suggests you did something wrong with it, not that the author of the article is responsible.

That article start/stops RDS service. I think OP did not had any RDS instance and to "try out" the code, they would have created one with SQL/Oracle DB with reserved DB instance. That costs somewhere around $150 based on DB type and backup strategy. Unless OP clears up whatever is created on AWS, they will be charged each month.
I believe this is classic case of "OMFG! what have I done.". Their AWS account will tell what exactly they are charged for and it cannot be lambda or cloudwatch unless OP did >million executions and dealt with GBs worth of data.
Sean should just send mankini pics as consolation. I bet OP would take $186/month set back happily instead of those pics.

It opens a blank page for me on Web03 and Web04. Why I went there? Too bored.

It is gone. It had been largely abandoned for years and did not serve a purpose we were interested in supporting.

CodeProject. A Guide. says:
Looking for icons, graphics, PocketPC themes, wallpaper or even a Javascript feed?
Time to remove the reference to PocketPC themes? 
I did a search in this forum for "PocketPC" but it came up with nothing. Which leads me to wonder... is there some sort of inside joke where Maunder and co know about this but want to see how long it is before somebody brings it up? 
Cheers,

I see that Mr CP is not wearing the french flag for the French National Day.
If it is not a bug, it is a suggestion.

I think the classical one is better, in fact it was a failed attempt to do a canadian flag

What ? Do you mean Chris have a time machine and he knew it before it happen ?
In this case, is it possible to have the numbers of French Loto ?

Holy s*** please no! Don't try to paint the canadian flag with airplanes.

Do you prefer a red flag with a white cross ?

If I try to "compare" revisions that a poster of a QA question makes, I can't see any comparable stuff.
Didn't I used to have a side-by-side display on which I could easily pickoff a line visually to denote an alteration in an origiinal?
Or have I been using WinDiff too much and my experiences have begun to bleed into brain parts unknown?

I think you should improve the time to answer the question. All the question should be answered whether it is yes or no. Your answer will be very helpful and time saving for the guys asking the questions.

The people answering questions on this site are volunteers.
Nobody is under any obligation to answer your questions at all, let alone within a fixed time.
If you don't get an answer to your question, then consider editing it to add more information, a better description of the problem, the relevant parts of your code, the details of the errors you're getting, etc.

There is no staff here answering questions. Questions are answered by other users when they think it can be valuable. Answering is voluntary and none is getting paid.
If you got no answers to your questions, think about modifying them. Your two questions are very specific so that only users that have done similar can answer it. One is - at least for me - rather unclear.
Remember also that no one is getting paid here for answering and it is called "quick answers". So nobody will invest too much time to answer, rewrite your code, or write answers when they would become extensive.

Can you pls answer my keypoints question more in coding way, rather than just yes or no.
Thank you.

That's exactly what I did...
Do you see our point now?
Better to wait for a correct answer, than forcing an answer that brings no value to the question.
Don't you think?
Now your questions are not in the list of unanswered anymore and that will difficult even more that you get the answer your were looking for.
Please re-read slowly the other answers to your message. I hope you now understand better what they say, since you are now living the practical use-case that they were explaining you.

Now, there's an idea.
Instead of only answering a question - and removing it from the "unanswered" queue - when we fully understand what the OP is trying to ask (and trust, me that can take a Looooooong time with some of 'em) we could have the system automatically post an answer at random from other questions using (say) 50% of the same words.
It probably wouldn't be of any use to the OP, and it would mean that nobody would know which questions are waiting for a solution, but it would get the question answered quickly, which appears to be your priority.
Most people would rather have a considered response from a volunteer who knows what they are doing instead ...
