- sites or dealers) for evaluation purposes and which is described

- ______________________________________________________________________
-
- EVALUATION PERIOD
-
- You may use a Shareware Copy of the Program for an evaluation period
- of up to 30 days, in order to determine whether the program meets your
- needs before purchasing it. Once the evaluation period ends, you agree
- to either purchase a Registered Copy of the Program, or to stop using
- it. If you have ordered a Registered Copy of the Program from us or
- from a registration site or dealer, you may continue to use your
- Shareware Copy until your Registered Copy arrives.
-
-
- ______________________________________________________________________
-
- USE OF THE PROGRAM
-
- While you are evaluating the Program, you may use it on as many
- computers as are required to perform your evaluation. Your 30-day
- evaluation period begins when you first install the Program on one or
- more computers for evaluation purposes. Once the evaluation period is
- over and you purchase the program, your use is subject to the
- following restrictions:
-
- 1. You agree not to install or use any individual copy of the Program
- on more than one computer at a time. However, you may install an
- individual copy simultaneously on one computer at work, one
- computer at home, and one portable computer, if all these
- computers are used primarily by the same individual, and there is
- no possibility that the computers will be in use at the same time
- except while you are actively transferring files between them. (If
- the Program was purchased by your employer you agree to get your
- employer's explicit permission before installing the Program on
- multiple computers as described above.)
-
- 2. If you purchased a multi-system license for the Program you agree
- not to install or use it on more computers than the number
- included in your license, as shown on your invoice, the program
- sign-on screen, or other documents from us.
-
-

-
- DISTRIBUTING SHAREWARE COPIES OF THE PROGRAM
-
- You may make copies of your Shareware Copy of the Program to give to
- others, as long as you include all of the files that you originally
- received with your Shareware Copy. When you give a Shareware Copy of
- the Program to another person, you agree to inform them that their
- copy is to be used for a time limited evaluation period, and that they
- must purchase a Registered Copy if they continue to use the Program
- once the evaluation period has ended. Distribution of the Shareware
- Copy on any media (including, but not limited to, CD-ROM, Shareware
- disks, BBS'es and ftp sites) is freely allowed, provided that the
- files inside the original distribution archives are not modified in
- any way. Addition of BBS advertisements etc. is strongly discouraged,
- but allowed.
-
-

-
- COPYING REGISTERED COPIES OF THE PROGRAM

- purposes. You agree not to make any other copies of the software, the
- manual(s), or any part of them, or sell or give any copies to others,
- without our advance written permission.
-
-

-
- OPERATION OF THE PROGRAM
