I noticed that when I tested it.  It increments a number in one of the
configuration files each time you run it.  When that number reaches
some high value like 65535, it gets incremented with wrap-around back
to 0, and then Procomm proudly declares, "used 0 times".  It's just
laying a guilt trip on you.

I forgot to mention this in the description.
