WinGroup License Agreement -------------------------- WinGroup is a "shareware program" and is provided at no charge to the non-commercial user for evaluation. Feel free to share it with your friends, but do not give it away altered or as part of another system. The essence of "user-supported" software is to provide personal computer users with quality software without high prices, and yet to provide incentive for programmers to continue to develop new products. If you find this program useful and find that you are using WinGroup and continue to use WinGroup after a reasonable trial period, you must make a reg- istration payment of US$10.00 to the author Scooper Ong at P.O. Box 101822, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15237, USA. The registration fee will license one copy for use on any one computer at any one time. You must treat this software just like a book. An example is that this software may be used by any number of people and may be freely moved from one computer location to another, so long as there is no possibility of it being used at one location while it's being used at another. Just as a book cannot be read by two different persons at the same time. Commercial users of WinGroup must register and pay for their copies of WinGroup within 30 days of first use or their license is withdrawn. Site-License arrangements may be made by con- tacting the Author. You may not permit other individuals to use WinGroup except under the terms listed above; modify, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble (except to the extent applicable laws specifically prohibit such restriction), or create derivative works based on the WinGroup; rent, lease, transfer or otherwise transfer rights to the Software; or remove any proprietary notices or labels on the Software. You are encouraged to pass a copy of WinGroup along to your friends for evaluation. Please encourage them to register their copy if they find that they can use it. Anyone distributing WinGroup for any kind of remuneration must first contact the Author at the address above for authorization. SOFTWARE.
