If you are referring to Procomm Plus Test drive there are, in fact,
a couple of more differences.  Furthermore, as far as I know, the
Test drive was officially meant for the States only, even if it
seeped to Europe, nevertheless.  It is futile to split hairs, but
perhaps the Test drive (if this is really about it) is not quite
what is conventionally meant by shareware, that is you just try the
program out and if you like it you just register your copy.  Be that
as it may, yours is interesting information.  What does the initial
screen of your shareware version say as compared to the principal
Plus? (Perhaps we should continue by email for the sake of the other
netters if this gets too specific for general posting.)
