Hi Nicol, I can understand your confusion here, but basicly shareware is a demo or a cut down version of the full retail program. For example when I release the new Monty demo you will be able to play the first two levels unlimited amount of times. That is sort of shareware, because it is a game and can be played on it's own, but if you want to actually have the full game you have to buy it. So basicly all and all sharware is demos by a different name. Now, I have seen some shareware is a full product, but want you to register if you like the program.
