Dear William- Yes, the process is somewhat confusing. The email is in Chinese, but the verification code is a four digit number, in bold print. On my computer, it was right in the middle of the email. There also is a button at the top of the email, towards the right, to display the message in English. But I didn’t notice that until after I already had completed the sign up process! My post below, #16, explains each step, with more details than the original Shareware On Sale instructions. Hope this helps!
