Alright guys, I've solved the mystery of the expiring freeware oxymoron! Isn't that what it is? If it expires, it's not freeware. Wrong! Yes it expires but it's still free as long as you "register" it.
Mr. S-K, himself says, "v1.19.4 is the last freeware version of Remover (Expire time - 10 Jan 2004). v2.0 will be shareware. All users (in the current year [2003] email me (s_k@aport.ru) \Windows\RemoverID.txt and get an unlock code for version 1.19.4."
I reset my Axim system clock to Jan 10, 2004. It didn't expire. Jan 11, 2004, still working. Jan 12, 2004, alive and well. Jan 13, 2004, com'on die. What's going on? Jan 14, 2004, finally-- the dreaded cryptic/cyrillic message!
I emailed Mr. S-K my RemoverID.txt and he replied within the day and gave me my unlock code. Good man, this Mr. S-K. Now my Remover v1.19.4 doesn't expire anymore, even if I reset the system clock to 2009!
If you want to keep this version (it's a great program, really for keeps), request for the unlock code within this year. Are willing to pay for v2.0?
