Who makes this connector?

I'm looking for a connector that I need for a PCB repair. I don't have
much to go by, other than there's a logo on it that is an "E" in a
square, with the word "France" written vertically just outside the
right-hand edge of the square. It's got a grey plastic housing. Does
anyone know who the campany is that uses this logo? Here's a rough
picture (tilt your head 90 degrees clockwise to see it correctly...):

If you could post a picture of the connector on a website, or on
alt.binaries.schematic.electronic, you may get more responses.

Not to mention some useful information like how many pins, what the
dimensions are...
 
You did not mention the product manufacture, or model it is from. Molex is
one of the most major manufactures of custom, and standard connectors for
many industrial and consumer equipment. If this connector is not a standard
type, they will send you back to the manufacture for your unit.

I have seen connectors before with a similar foot print of what you drew
here (as sort of unclear as it is). The ones I was were from Molex.

Thanks for your replies. I'll try to get this posted on the
alt.binaries.schematic.electronic newsgroup as well.

I forgot to mention it in my first post, but I somewhat deliberately
didn't include any information about the connector's use or pin
configuration, etc. because what I really need to know is who
manufactures it, and I've all but given up looking for a substitute
(been trying to find one off and on for 8 years). The connector is a
pluggable terminal strip, similar to some made by Phoenix Contact, but
its housing is unique in that it's non-polarized (the mating connector
can be installed either direction). Also, I need an exact replacement
because the unit needs to be reinstalled in the field, and able to be
swapped with another at any time. I've looked at connectors made by
dozens of different companies, but nobody has yet had one like this,
which is why I'd really like to know what the "E" logo stands for. If
I can find out what company that is, I can attempt to get an exact
replacement. The manufacturer of the unit I'm working on will not sell
the connector (or any other component but a fuse for that matter), and
would rather the customer buy a new pcb for much $$$.

Much thanks again for any and all help!
