As an experiment, we make full/unlimited version Password Agent
available in most countries free of charge, except people from
the following countries with highest living standard are asked to
pay for it:

USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, UK, Ireland, France,
Japan, Iceland, Norway, Finland, Sweden, Denmark,
Netherlands, Italy, Germany, Austria, Switcherland.

In countries listed above the Lite version is still free and
everything works like before.

The program (version 2.3.4 or newer) will detect your regional
settings and will adjust accordingly.

The "goodwill mode" is experimental and may change or may not be
available in future releases. We appreciate your feedback about
this project.

Not true freeware but a neat idea.

Setting the regional setting to anything than the mentioned countries
will let me test the full version and decide if I need/require/can
morally justify the features.


best regards

Olaf

That should read "goodwill (lite) mode".
"Goodwill to everyone, except those who we deem to have too much of a
good thing."

I guess some people just don't mind having their morals dictated to
them.

Can we say Baaaah?

The publishers aren't taking away a person's choice to use the software.
No harm, no foul.

Use Whisper 32 instead. It's free no matter where you live.

I love http://keepass.sourceforge.net
(absolutely free and open source, Windows-based).

Before this, I was keeping multiple text files for logins and
passwords (!)

Runs portably for portable USB drives, has all the convenient/secure
features you can imagine, etc.

Hey! What about Singapore? What about Monaco? Luxembourg? Kuwait?

"Switcherland"-shouldn't that be Switzerland. Otherwise it doesn't
exsist

Thus the saying: "Freedom does not come free."

The 'Lite' version is still 'free?'
Well, our cup is certainly half-full!

Any remark against "Password Agent" and their "goodwill
mode" policies is a remark dishonoring *our* *troops*
and freedom's efforts worldwide!

(And this includes Oz, Camelot, Never-never-land,
and Val Halla, as well as "Switcherland" too.)

The aspect that perpetually and continually bugs me
is that the folks at Willy Wonka's still get it for free,
and they have the highest standard of living as ever can be.
