- What is Albert's Ambry?
-
- Albert's Ambry is a shareware store residing on the Internet
- that provides you access to a large number of shareware programs.
- This is a try-before-you-buy store, so you can download any
- shareware package they have in their library and try it out.
- After trying it out you can register it at Albert's Ambry if you
- should decide to do so. You can also register MicroCook there
- even if you downloaded it at an other BBS or Internet site. All
- you need is a valid credit card. And of course Albert's Ambry is
- a 24-hour store allowing you to register whenever you like.
-
- There has been a lot of media coverage regarding the
- security of the Internet and Web. Some of it is true. Other
- things are not. When you transmit the credit card numbers to
- Albert's Ambry, or any other Web store, it is sent in many small
- packages. And all packages do not necessarily go the same route.
- Package 1 might go through route 1, package 2 through route 47,
- and package 3 through route 33. So the chance that someone could
- intercept the transmission to Albert's Ambry and get the WHOLE
- credit card number, your name, and the expiration date is VERY
- small. Someone has a better chance finding your credit card
- number on a receipt from a store than from Cyberspace. Albert's
- Ambry does NOT store your credit card number on their server,
- only the transaction. So if a cyber-thief should get through
- their specially designed and very secure firewall, he cannot find
- it. Only a lot of shareware!
-
- When you register MicroCook at Albert's Ambry you don't
- need to download MicroCook again, unless you have an older
- version. In the registered ZIP file are a generic KEY file, an
- additional 2000 recipes, and the database repair utility MCDBFIX.
- The file you'll download when you register is called MCOOKREG.ZIP.
- Just copy it to the same directory as where you keep your other
- MicroCook program files and unzip it. That's all. Please do NOT
- upload, give away copies, or distribute copies of the MCOOKREG.ZIP
- file. It's ONLY for registered users.
-
- If you want to get a personalized KEY file, where YOUR name
- will be printed on the bottom line in the MicroCook editor,
- please send e-mail to NORSKi Software with an approximate date
- when you registered with Albert's Ambry. Please specify the name
- to use in the KEY file. I'll then e-mail instructions back on how
- to create the KEY file with MicroCook.
