Well, they're liars. Before purchasing the lifetime license two years ago, I asked them if it truly means "for life" and if I won't have to pay an update price for a major new version or a "pro" version. Of course no. Never. Life means for life.Repeating part of their license change notice:-wr975 (December 27, 2010, 05:09 AM)
this change doesn't affect those who already purchased the license with lifetime upgradesI bought a lifetime license first off, and as I read the above, they're honouring it. The personal lifetime license still says lifetime upgrades. I agree with 40hz that such a license is now expensive, probably too expensive now. I see there's no lifetime license for commercial use at all, though.
Updates have been very slow with USB Safely Remove. And now there's "Zentimo", which is kinda the pro version of "USB Safely Remove". The developer say it like this: USBSR won't be getting new features, it'll be kept simple. For those who want new features, buy Zentimo.I briefly looked at the features of Zentimo, and decided that it offered more than I need at present, so for now I'm staying with USBSR. However, I do have a free key for Zentimo v1.0 from one of their free give-aways; they're quite keen on those
If they can't afford lifetime licenses anymore, then do it like Slysoft, or Admuncher... new licenses are limited, but the existing ones stay the same.As I read it, that's what they're doing. Maybe I'd better tell them about this thread.
USB Safely Remove 4.4 final is available now. We have improved user interface, made its icon more nicer, restored Win2000 compatibility and fixed some other bugs. Besides we added one important and frequently requested feature: the ability to power off USB drives after their stopping in Vista and Windows 7. Download the version 4.4 right now or read further about new features.
Note! The license policy for USB Safely Remove has changed since this version. The license will include one or two years of upgrade subscription. However user can still use the program for lifetime and use one license for every computer you own. Of course this change doesn't affect those who already purchased the license with lifetime upgrades. For a limited time licenses with lifetime upgrades are still available to sell. See new pricing on the order page.
CopyMessageBox looks like a slick little utility with a nice, simple design. Unfortunately, it didn't capture the text on the first error message I tried it with. ... so it's got some limitations.-gdv22 (December 24, 2010, 03:28 AM)
The best program I've found so far (and have used for years) to capture the text from error messages is NirSoft's SysExporter. ... it isn't nearly as convenient as a clipping program would be.
i tried something from a while back based on a suggestion here, and it was a very lightweight simple clipboard manager that literally had a grid of boxes with each clip in it, and I could just click the buttons to paste them into whatever form. i forgot what it was called.-superboyac (December 22, 2010, 06:33 PM)
You must be the most active discount hawk on DC And thanks, moonwatcher! I use [Password Depot] for all online log-ins so it'll remember your username and password and other fields too-Beth UK (December 22, 2010, 04:14 PM)
It's time Siber Systems had some competition 
The price includes free upgrades to interim releases (e.g. from 1.0 to 1.3).
I may have read it wrong, but to my (lack of) understanding, all hulkbuster was asking for, is a program to capture the text from popup message boxes.-Curt (December 21, 2010, 04:34 PM)
I'll try! Password Depot is a desktop password application made by AceBit. It's not new, but it is regularly updated. I have run it alongside Roboform and LastPass and keep returning to it as my preferred password app.-Beth UK (December 22, 2010, 11:29 AM)
I don't use Firefox so going back to v.6 is always an option for me.I'm using Firefox 3.6.13, which is recent, and RoboForm 6.10.1, the last of the v6 series, works fine for me. Of course, I don't know how long that will continue.-Darwin (December 22, 2010, 08:22 AM)
I am seriously unimpressed with how this was handled and with the responses that I've seen from Siber Systems thus far.As I wrote above, I notified Siber Systems about this thread in the online ticket I submitted when 6.10.1 wouldn't activate. They did neither told me how to activate - thanks again, CWuestefeld - nor replied to my invitation to view this thread, which I thought would give them a platform to make their case. All they did was ask if I wanted to "upgrade" to v7.
Roboform is ABSOLUTELY indispensible to me

In this issue:
* MailWasher Pro 2011 Released
* New lifetime license plan!
[...]
Since the release of 2010, we’ve been keeping a close eye
on your feedback, suggestions, bug reports and concerns
and have updated MailWasher accordingly. MailWasher Pro
2011 is the result of all of these fixes and much more!
It’s faster and more responsive, it has a cleaner more
simplified (and less cartoonish) interface, it’s easier
to understand and comes with some really cool new
customization features. So as they say, “out with the old,
and in with the new!”
[...]
New lifetime license plan!
===========================
No more subscription fees! Many of you told us you wanted
ongoing updates, support etc but didn't feel comfortable
with the idea of an annual subscription fee.
So we've introduced the MailWasher Pro lifetime license
which gives you free updates and support, free upgrades
to all new versions and most importantly exempts you from
any annual fees for the lifetime of the product!
If this sounds like you, we recommend upgrading to a lifetime
license plan.
Upgrade to lifetime license

One feature that I use a lot in ClipMate is "Power Paste."-cyberdiva (December 21, 2010, 12:35 PM)
I've noticed that I have subconsciously settled on the following applications:

Clipboard Help+Spell-superboyac (December 21, 2010, 11:14 AM)
Arsclip's preferences and layout can be a little chaotic, that's why I say that.
I mentioned earlier that Password Depot is quite decent (though not perfect) as a desktop app.-Beth UK (December 20, 2010, 04:47 PM)

I'm reading the Malazan Book of the Fallen series by Steven Erikson. Good stuff if you're a fantasy reader like me. Really deep, take-no-prisoners type of style-skwire (December 18, 2010, 09:12 PM)

I just went back and looked at the KeePass page. It looks to me like there's a new plugin for integrating with FireFox (unfortunately it won't help for other browsers)PassIFox extension for Firefox-CWuestefeld (December 17, 2010, 10:28 AM)
I had this same discussion with a few friends last week when one of them began extolling the virtues of RF. Most of us had tried and liked it. But we all (but one) thought it not worth the asking price for the convenience and features it provided.-40hz (December 16, 2010, 12:52 PM)
The important part of that reply was:Go to http://activate.roboform.com/?lang=en in the browser to which RoboForm has attached-CWuestefeld (December 16, 2010, 12:07 PM)
And - once I went to look for it - I found I already had those instructions in the original e-mail from them from four years ago - doh! 
As to the upgrade... Their licenses are pretty expensive, and I'm having a hard time seeing that it's worth the expense.
