Get a life, will ya?  The upgrade _IS_ free.  The new manual and disks
cost $$$.  Central Point has made the upgrade available on their BBS for 
a reason.  I bought the product, and I didn't feel a new manual was 
worth $20.00 when I could download the thing for <$10.00.

Read the _ENTIRE_ upgrade offer before you jump on people in the future.

I just talked to Centeral Point Software about the PCTOOLS 5.1 to 5.5
upgrade.  They said that the only legal place to download the 
upgrade is from their bulletin board (503)690-6650 2400/f/n/8-1).
They also stated that you do NOT have to pay any upgrade fee.
If you do decide that you want a new manual, the cost is $12.50;
for new disks and a manual the cost is $20.00.
The files on their BBS are encrypted using the 5.1 encryption
utility, so you need to have a copy version 5.1
