	I doubt those people will be willing (I don't know who though) to 
set it to freeware.

	I believe the person (company ?) who owns the spell-checker / 
thesaurus should be having it on multiple platforms, and if it is set for 
'freeware' status, then I couldn't think of the consequences for those 
other platforms and programs (i.e. WordPerfect, Word on Win NT, Win95, 
Amiga etc...).

	Just my two cents.
