I agree with you. In fact I knew that the CBM geos is still purchased,
and I thought that the softhouse that produced it adn't released it as
freeware. I actually own a lot of regularly purchased shareware, and I
should do so for the GEOS too: after a trial time, if I'll think it's
useful to me, I'll purchase it. Nothing more, nothing less. Even if I
could reach the softhouse: in that case, I'll simply delete my
downloaded copy.

There's no fun in shooting the ambulance!!!
