Restrictions on site publishing:

When you publish your site to your hard drive or to a Web server, the NetObjects Fusion Eval  adds a watermark footer to each page stating that the site was  created in a trial version of NetObjects Fusion. This is done to prevent software piracy and to protect NetObjects Fusion copyrights. When you purchase the retail version of NetObjects Fusion, the footer will no longer appear  on the pages that you publish.
