I agree, I'm waiting for a full trial too. They could make one that only gives you 3 tries, but I think their spyware gets in the way of that. This is a new thing that software makers are using. It keeps an open phone line home. They also know more about your computer then you think. I bought Speed download and loaded it on my backup computer too. It read that there is a computer using that already, it even gave the names of both my computers. I trashed that application fast. Thanks for the heads up on this application. I may not buy it after all. Just because you buy their product doesn't give them full run of your computer. I smell a law suit coming.
