    AVOID THIS PRODUCT. I was unable to register this. I uninstalled. Why is SHAREWARE peddling software that cannot be registered?

    I had a terrible time registering this product also.
    I’m a longtime subscriber to SOS so I know the drill, but ASCOMP’s directions were confusing and even contradictory.

    I was almost ready to give up then I was able to figure it out, no thanks to the directions!
    What a waste of time, honestly, if you want people to try out your software this ain’t the way to do it.

    @all above:
    While Iam NOT interested in especial this giveaway…:
    I found an still find it extremely easy to register products from ASCOMP:

    1. you always and only NEED an ACCOUNT at Ascomp
    2. having done this (see outline 1.) you mustlogin at your account (az Ascomp)
    – download “your” full version(s)
    – and register with your customer-ID (for me: a 10 digit number)

    BTW: You will find ALL “your” registerd Ascomp software you will find there, ready for downloading it again
    – as long as you are promised to get updates
    – even if there were minor updates within this promised time range.

    Thought I would take a minute and add my experience. Yes, it was frustrating but it was entirely my fault as I had two accounts with them. I had totally forgotten I had set up an account using an old email. I had two account numbers. I have finally corrected it and now am using the most recent account that I have had. The only problem I now have is every time I pull up the program, my Webroot keep saying this program is attempting to contact the internet and is not trusted.

    Subject: Misleading “Free” Offer – Expiration Hidden Until After Registration

    Hello,

    I am extremely disappointed with how this “free” offer is being presented. It is apparently free for only one month, yet that critical limitation is not clearly disclosed anywhere before registration.

    The expiration date is only shown after a customer has already registered. That is not transparent, and it creates the impression that customers are being deliberately misled into signing up without being given the full terms upfront.

    If an offer is limited to one month, that information should be prominently displayed on the offer page, during registration, and before anyone is asked to provide personal or payment information. Hiding the expiration date until after registration is unacceptable and feels deceptive.

    Please explain why the one-month limitation and expiry date were not clearly disclosed before registration. I also expect this issue to be corrected immediately so other customers are not misled in the same way.

    This appears on the sharewareonsale website as being offered for free and licensed for a lifetime, but as others have already discovered, it is licensed only for one month. Totally dishonest, and disappointing to say the least.

    Once again (don’t know how many times I must repeat this): THE LICENSE IS FOR LIFETIME USAGE!

    Just download, update, and support are included for 30 days only (information shown here is wrong – it’s 30 days, not six months).

    We give this ON TOP of the lifetime usage license, which is the MOST RECENT product version. Who else does it here!?
