DEFINITION OF SHAREWARE
 
Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before buying it.If
you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you are expected to register.
Individual programs differ on details -- some request registration while others
require it, some specify a maximum trial period. With registration, you get
anything from the simple right to continue using the software to an updated
program with printed manual.

Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software, and the
copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as stated
below. Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just like commercial
authors, and the programs are of comparable quality. (In both cases, there are
good programs and bad ones!) The main difference is in the method of
distribution. The author specifically grants the right to copy and distribute
the software, either to all and sundry or to a specific group. For example, some
authors require written permission before a commercial disk vendor may copy
their Shareware.

Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should find
software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's commercial or
Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs easier, because you can
try before you buy. And because the overhead is low, prices are low also.
Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the product,
you don't pay for it.


DISCLAIMER - AGREEMENT

Users of FreeFile must accept this disclaimer of warranty: FreeFile is supplied
as is.  The author disclaims all warranties, expressed or implied, including,
without limitation, the warranties of merchantability and of fitness for any
purpose. The author assumes no liability for damages, direct or consequential,
which may result from the use of FreeFile.

FreeFile is a "shareware program" and is provided at no charge to the user for
evaluation.  Feel free to share it with your friends, but please do not give it
away altered or as part of another system. The essence of "user-supported"
software is to provide personal computer users with quality software without
high prices, and yet to provide incentive for programmers to continue to develop
new products. If you find this program useful and find that you are using
FreeFile and continue to use FreeFile after 30 days, you must make a
registration payment of US$10.00 to Gorgon Enterprises, Inc. The $10.00US
registration fee will license one copy for use on any one computer at any one
time. You must treat this software just like a book. An example is that this
software may be used by any number of people and may be freely moved from one
computer location to another, so long as there is no possibility of it being
used at one location while it's being used at another. Just as a book cannot be
read by two different persons at the same time.

Users of FreeFile must register and pay for their copies of FreeFile within 30
days of first use or their license is withdrawn. Site-License arrangements may
be made by contacting Gorgon Enterprises, Inc.

Anyone distributing FreeFile for any kind of remuneration must first contact
Gorgon Enterprises, Inc. at the address below for authorization. This
authorization will be automatically granted to distributors recognized by the
(ASP) as adhering to its guidelines for shareware distributors, and such
distributors may begin offering FreeFile immediately (However Gorgon
Enterprises, Inc. must still be advised so that the distributor can be kept
up-to-date with the latest version of FreeFile.).

You are encouraged to pass a copy of FreeFile along to your friends for
evaluation. Please encourage them to register their copy if they find that they
can use it. All registered users will receive a copy of the latest version of
the FreeFile system.
