Anyone hosting the last freeware version? If it's a worthwhile app maybe
it could be?

From http://software.visicommedia.com/en/...htmlfreeware/:

"Visicom Media announces that AceHTML 5 Freeware is discontinued and will
no longer be supported. Instead, we are focusing our efforts exclusively on
AceHTML Pro to provide you with the best-value Web-editing software."

From http://www.urban75.org/tech/acehtml.html:

"You can't activate the software until you've registered an email
address..."

Since the company has ceased support, it seems that they would no longer
allow registration.

I didn't find any references on Google about it being spyware.

I believe that was the name of another company, not this one. The other one
produced a freeware / spyware contact managment proggie as well as some
stuff that used MS Agent to read email, etc. They are no longer in business
AFAIK.

I used Acehtml a while back (before I got dreamweaver), and I thought it
was an excellent prog, right up there with evrsoft etc, miles better than
Nvu.

I had the lite (free) version, and liked it so much I paid money for the
pro version - which then went freeware!

The shrinks say I'll neve make a complete recovery.

So, IMO, well worth it unless somethings changed, but it looks the same.

Omega (Karen) had this to say about registration: "AceHTML. . . .
First, it is registerware (who also demands one's info all over again on
each upgrade)."

It does apparently make a lot of entries in the registry - snippet from
a post from Frank Delamarre:

AceHTML5
Keys added: 764
Values added: 4348
(Files added: 248)

LFW version is v 5.09.1 It looks like there are two questions regarding
archiving a LFW of this app. Can it be legally distributed? Can it be
registered and used? Can anyone shed some light this?

It cannot be registered any longer. I tried today.

It can be used without registering, but it nags you to death.
