About Shareware One of the items which adds to the cost of commercial software is the marketing and packaging, passed on by the company selling the product. Many programmers do not care to see these "middle man" costs passed on to the consumer, so they distribute their software online, in the form of "shareware". Consumers derive a huge benefit from this manner of distribution:
Please note that shareware is not free. Programmers work long and hard to develop software that's stable and performs well. Please remember to register and pay for the shareware you decide to keep. About Freeware As the name says, it's free (sometimes you'll find postcardware, beerware, etc., a small price to pay for some terrific software). However, it is advisable to read all documentation that comes with the software, as many times the information contained therein is invaluable. About Downloading Just click on a link, and you'll be presented with a dialog box, asking you where you would like to save the file, and what name you'd like to give it (we advise not changing any of the text that shows up after the ".", as that will prompt your browser to "decompress" any compressed files - as long as your browser preferences haven't been changed).
