asdfoi83wyrl Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Due to the fact that WinRAR's previous attempt to give people nonupgradeable single-user licenses to 3.51 kinda failed due to heavy server load, they're offering the same thing again today. Just fill out the form and they'll send you a link to get your trial copy of WinRAR converted into a full version without a nagging popup. http://nct.digitalriver.com/fulfill/0233.001 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian M. Veteran Posted August 4, 2006 Veteran Share Posted August 4, 2006 cool thanks for the heads up (Y) edit: Just a note to mods - would it be OK to post a direct link to the key file - if its free, it doesnt matter, and it will stop people having to input details?

Brian M. Veteran Posted August 4, 2006 Veteran Share Posted August 4, 2006 Yeah it is genuine - it downloads a rar file with a key file inside it. Winrar automatically recognises the key, and is registered. My winrar now says "Registered to: PCA special offer" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Japlabot Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 I managed to get one of those keys, but now I've got a question (sorry about the resurrection): Was there any condition or such that the license was for Personal-use only? because I want to use it for the business server but I'm not sure if it's allowed.
