497428 2006-11-09 01:26:00 You obviously haven't read many EULA's as you never own the software.But TGoddard did say "pay to use", not "buy". The writer, or the employer, does own the software :D

alsoslick: If $25 is "a bit excessive" for a programme ... write your own (better, of course) programme, and give it to the world.

497431 2006-11-10 01:12:00 You fired off a bit too quickly . Reread his post . Once was enough . It was in English . He used "pay to use" to refer to the transaction required to gain the right to use the programme, after the trial period . He did use "buy", in his first sentence, where it has to imply "buying" a licence to use, since we all know that that is (usually) the valuable item, ownership of which is transferred in the "purchase" of software . :cool:

Pedantry rules . :D

You can argue all you like but you did not read it like I did and I still say that I read that post the way he Wrote it.

497433 2006-11-10 14:52:00 How does a program that you have used the trial version for the maximum number of days after you uninstall it and install it again? Is there something I can do to change it so that it would act as if i had never once installed it?

hello guys..

check your registry.. delete the program registry so that you can use again the trial version...:)

i hope i help you for this.,..:)

I gave my thumbs up to his post for a reason :) . He read it the way I meant it. I'm a free software supporter and am fully aware of how software is licensed.

And you think this would work? Maybe for some simple program but most programmers are not that stupid and hide the code elsewhere.
