KBBS_40.ZIP is a authorized version of KBBS Shareware.
It includes ALL the files needed to run your own KBBS.
KBB_40.ZIP (notice that it's spelled KBB, NO 'S') also
is a share version but only includes the main program,
and possible a few files or instructions that are also
needed to UPGRADE your KBBS if you have already installed
a version of our KBBS. IT WILL NOT RUN BY ITSELF; you must
install the KBBS first before you can upgrade!
WARNING! If you have already installed a version of our
KBBS_xxx.ZIP (where xxx is a version number) YOU MUST
BACKUP YOUR EXISTING VERSION since the Installer program
WILL writeover some of your files. Especially, you need
a few files that setup your configuration and forums.
If you do not know which ones you need, contact us for
further instructions!
If you receive the distribution disk, or download from
a KBBS or BBS, check to see if it is one large ZIP file
with the file extension ZIP and unzip it if necessary.
To get things going, type INSTALL. The KBBS Installer
will take care of the rest. This is all designed to be
easy, in keeping with our name:
KISSWARE WORKS!
Keep It Simple SoftWare is Always Really Easy and Works!

BUSINESS/PROFESSIONAL VERSION
-----------------------------
ONE YEAR FREE Technical support is provided by telephone, e-mail,
fax, letter, etc. This includes add on products from KISSWARE
and special features you might need. We cannot afford 24 hours a
day, but during regular business hours and often in the early
evening someone will be able to talk to you on the phone. Also,
a technician may be able to fix things by remote sysop logon so
you won't have to fiddle with any technical things. You will also
receive additional information like tips, hints, etc. to help
make your KBBS a professional site. Some software offerings are
only included in the professional version and are optional
add-ons for the other versions.
PERSONAL USE ONLY
-----------------
90 DAY FREE Technical support is limited to e-mail or fax. NO
TELEPHONE SUPPORT will be offered. You will normally receive an
answer in aprox. 24 hours by e-mail on our KBBS or via fax.
In order to receive the PERSONAL VERSION, you must agree to use
your KBBS for hobby or personal (not for profit) use only, and
provide KISSWARE with a permanent USER ID and PASSWORD to verify
your usage of KBBS. Also, you must agree to keep the latest
version of KBBS available on your computer for downloading and
only release the official "shareware" version.
EDUCATIONAL USE ONLY
--------------------
Same offering as PERSONAL VERSION except that your registration
must include a letter from your School, College, or University
certifying that the use is strictly for EDUCATIONAL USE ONLY.
RELIGIOUS USE
-------------
Several churches have inquired about a special price or version.
Since most schools have their own technical people, the savings
is partly due to reduced support, plus our desire to help others
learn more about computers. For RELIGOUS USE only, we will give
the same price as the PERSONAL VERSION, provided that you also
agree to keep the latest version of KBIBLE on your computer so
others can download it. KBIBLE includes the complete KJV of
the Bible.
