I was looking at this app and read over the licensing conditions to use it for free. I am still laughing my A$$ off. The guy means well but his conditions are ridiculous and totally unenforceable. You really need to read the fine print of these apps or the computer Gestapo will get you. :blink:

Here is a copy and paste of the funniest part.

You may use the program free of charge indefinitely only if

You take at most 4 flights (2 return flights) in any 12 month period
AND you do not own or regularly drive an SUV (sports utility vehicle).

If you do not qualify you must uninstall the program after the 30-day trial period or purchase WordWeb Pro.

They are most unusual, though I'd qualify:

1. I don't own/drive a SUV regularly
2. I've never taken 4 flights in a 12 month period

I assume he is targeting the freeware version at lower income earning people.

Though I agree it would be unenforceable,
