Hello, All!

Who is this Victor Sazhin, Free Downloadcentre?

In his newsletter it showed:


RVS-COM for ADSL Freeware $0.00
The RVS-COM for ADSL is a tool which allows you to utilize your
Internet bandwidth to the fullest.


So I downloaded and installed it. It looked like quite a thorough
installation. It said it was installing a new driver and I had to restart.
These things make me a little jumpy. After restart it continued and said it
was a 30 days evaluation version. So much for "freeware". Thanks Victor...
:-(

Maybe he just did a mistake?
Maybe a lot of work to maintain and update a freeware/shareware site?
Maybe you should told him about this error?
Maybe you should not have posted first in this group?

Maybe?

Perhaps by posting promptly in this group, he saves someone else from
making the same mistake? I've seen many such warnings, alerts, and
heads-up here.

Agree with you, Tom, that it's good to be warned like this when payware
comes guised as freeware. The only item with that post, it's that it might
have been a better approach to post newsletter name as subject, instead
of the maintainer's name. Given that the maintainer had made an honest
mistake.
