Urgent message to all system SYSOPS re:MAXI Disk v2.01
From Herne Data Systems Ltd,

Some one has taken it upon themselves to upload copies of one of our
commercial products MAXI Disk to a number of BBS systems.  If you see a
file on your system named MAXI201.ZIP or similar, that is less than
about 40k bytes long, please REMOVE it at once, it is a commercial
product.  An earlier shareware program which went under the name of MAXI
Form is OK to have on your system.  The latest version for it is 1.53,
although the most common is 1.51.  
  
MAXI Form (the shareware program) is about 40k bytes long in the form of
an EXE file (MAXI.EXE) and is usually arced with MAXI.TXT and SMAX.COM. 
MAXI DISK (the commercial program) is about 8k bytes long in the form of
a COM file (MAXI.COM) and has been seen arced with the DOCS for the
shareware program and SMAX.COM.
  
The two programs can be further distinguished by he fact that MAXI Form
is command line option driven and has a shareware registration screen
when no options are specified.  MAXI Disk is totaly menu driven, with no
preliminary sign-on screen.  It normally retails for $19.95 (US) or
$22.95 (CDN).
  
If someone tries to upload a copy of the commercial version to your BBS,
we would appreciate being informed.
