Whilst I admit I had exceeded the trial period for registering Thor this was due, not from a desire to deprive the appropriate author(s) of their rightful returns, more to my lazyness in that I just kept putting off setting up a different newsreader. Given this I will, even though I no longer intend to use it, register Thor. Since you have decided to ignore the Piracy issue (which was the crux of this thread) and instead have decided to become a crusader for shareware authors I have a question. I now have one piece of unregistered software on my Amiga, namely MiamiDX (though there is no time limit for unregistered usage). Please advise me on how I can get this registered? Anyway, read the header and weep you sad little man. (I actually removed the keyfile prior to posting last night just to see your reaction). > BTW, I'm still waiting for those legal references you promised us. > And you will continue to wait until I can be bothered to dig them out. I am certainly not going to drop everthing else just to satisfy your knowledge gaps.
