Donohue) Newsgroups: comp.sys.ibm.pc Subject: shareware and public domain software Keywords: pd, shareware, safe? Message-ID: <2038@leah.Albany.Edu> Date: 21 Sep 89 14:09:15 GMT Organization: The University at Albany, Computer Services Center Lines: 16 I have been considering purchasing shareware and public domain software from one of the software houses, such as those found in ads from the "Computer Shopper." Does anyone have any experience with any of these companies (good or bad)? Do these companies guarantee against viruses? Are there better/safer/cheaper places to get PD and Shareware? Recommendations? thanks, Pete -- Peter P. Donohue ppd491@albny1vx.bitnet . "Education is a journey, ppd491@leah.albany.edu . not a destination..."
