I'm all for spreading the word about new software/devices, but the way this one was done was more like a commercial.

The user id for posting is a company name and the software is not free, only a free trial. Plus it is so impersonal. Not like the author of the software was personally extending an offer or spreading the word, just another ad.

Admins, should this stay?

FYI that RayDar contacted me with apologies for any offense.
I informed him that it was not offensive to me but that is our policy to prevent daily postings of ads and solicitations (another came right after his).

Just thought I'd let all know.

I have used this program, it isn't free but it is the best program that I have used. I have contacted the developer several different times about problems that I was having, he always answered within a few hours with an answer.
I can't say enough good about the program. Well thats my 0.02 cents worth.
