See reader questions & answers on this topic! - Help others by sharing your knowledge Shareware is a distribution system for computer software based on the "try-before-you-buy" principle. If you like a program, then you make a registration payment to the author. If you don't want the program after trying it out, then you delete it or pass it along to a friend. Shareware is NOT freeware. To legally use a program that has been distributed as Shareware you MUST pay for it. Registration usually gives the user extra benefits such as the latest version on disk, a printed manual, technical support, upgrade discounts and enhanced program functionality.
