     Strange, I've got the shareware versions and by processing the disk for
text strings, this is what I've got:

     Notice that, atleast, the city of origin is the same.  Maybe a friendly

P.S.  If memory servers me right, the address on the disk matches the address 
      in the A+ product spotlight.
