I've bought Koktail TWICE, once as standalone program and once in a bundle.
Now none of the serial numbers are working.
E-mails are bouncing ...
Anyone else had this experience ?

Very useful program.

There are other programs that do the same, but I like this one.

For what it is worth. MainMenu is a free app, and it does all of this stuff. Use it along with AppCleaner (also free) and you'll be fine. Both are light weight and do their job well, with a superb interface for both.
