Oh good.  While I used a resource editor to change the "unregistered" title
to "Registered" or "Freeware" or something, it doesn't seem to expire
anyhow.
I don't currently have it on my computer because I'm cramped for space and
am still recovering from a major crash.  I had this a long time ago (2.0)
and when I tried to find it again.... darn near impossible. But I found it.
This time I burned it to CD so there you have it.

Let's see now.  My copy works and installs fine.  The file self extracts
into the same directory all the internal setup files, from which you run
Setup from.
While it says that you have to reboot, please keep in mind that this aging
program (circa 1995) was written for an older operating system and seems to
function
without rebooting. But it wouldn't hurt I suppose.

No problem. I'm still a Gopher fan so I keep it around.
