Hi Russ, Did you get a free version? I need this to install on customers PCs when doing maintenance, etc. We always install free anti-adware and other free programs. Don't like to deal with telling people where to go and buy this and that program, when I can just install it off our CD, and it's Done! Jeff said his version was free, but at the http://www.panicware.com/popupstopper.html web site both versions are for sale. If anyone has a free version, which doesn't expire, I wouldn't mind getting a copy.
