I believe the official site is now the file section of the ISDNPM area on 
egroups.com. This is where I have got my copy from.

Donno, I suspect it is the normal reason associated with single author 
shareware programs. It isn't their day job...

Good point shareware quite often works like that. Though almost as often the 
single fee is only for that particular major version. TBH if I can get the 
compression to work I'd be happy to pay again as a fair bit of work has gone 
into v3. The pipe (and now tcp/ip socket) interface has been improved quite 
a lot along with multilink and compression.

The egroups list is very active, normally 10+ messages/day giving support 
and help. The list owner has authority to issue test keys and seems to know 
the software very well.
