  This software is provided 'as-is', without any express or
  implied warranty. In no event will the author be held liable
  for any damages arising from the use of this software.

  Permission is granted to anyone to use this software, including
  commercial applications. Redistributing the program is only
  allowed if it is NOT REGISTERED (i.e., the DEMO version),
  subject to the following restrictions:

  1. The origin of this software must not be misrepresented,
     you must not claim that you wrote the original software.

  2. This notice may not be removed or altered from any distribution.

Registration
------------ 
NameScanner is shareware. If you use it after the evaluation period,
you must register it. Just click the "Registration" option in the menu
bar and follow the instructions.

Installation:
-------------
Unzip the zip file to a directory of your choice, preferably to
\NameScan (on any diskdrive). If you already have a previous version
of NameScanner, just overwrite the old files. The old DATA and CONFIG
files will not be overwritten, so you'll keep all settings of the
previous version.

Support:
--------
REGISTERED USERS can report on any problems, bugs or desiderata for
future versions at this address: namescanner@festra.com
If you are a registered user, we'll answer your mail ASAP.

Known problems:
--------------
If the "Delay between scans" is set too low and you have a very fast
Internet connection, the Whois server might stop answering your
queries. This is in fact not a bug of NameScanner, but a limitation
built into most Whois servers to protect them from overload.
