>*< ShareWare Information >*<
Now for the bad news that everyone hates to hear. FilesBBS Manager
is ShareWare and what that means to you the user is that you are free
to use the program in it's current configuration as long as you
desire. Only problem with that is that un-registered versions will
have a 10 second delay at the start and end of the program, all other
functions are operational. You can obtain a demo key to try out the
program for 30 days to see if you like it or not. After that time if
you decide to register the program you will be required to pay either
$15 or it's equilivant depending on where you register the program at. For more
info on registering FBM, see Register or README.TXT file.
Thanks,
John
