Default Shareware/freeware?

What is the difference?

2nd, if you download one of these cheepy programs that really you dont put any use to but once a month. But they only give you a 30 day trial, where do they record it on your compter that you can start it over?

Freeware is free.

Shareware is a try before you buy thing. Typically the s/w allows you to use it for a period of time, say 30 days, and then if you like it you're supposed to pay for it. Some shareware will disable itself after the trial period and after you pay for it they give you a key to make it work again.

download a program called "SERIALS 2000" It has the reg. numbers to almost every program in existence and every version of it. Thus making all software, freeware.
