I've never before heard of Print Artist, but we know Nova (pdf), and Print Artist is now at version 23, so I guess it should be fine. However, if you are nervous:

90-Day Money Back Guarantee
If you do not like Print Artist Gold 23 for any reason you can get your money back within 90 days of purchase. No questions asked. We are sure, however, that you will not want to be without this terrific title once you give it a try.

-Curt (April 28, 2010, 06:01 PM)

Are you sure about that? Nova Development is not the developer of Nova PDF, Softland SRL is.

General Software Discussion / Re: HyperSnap now installs toolbar, without asking?

« Last post by PhilB66 on April 21, 2010, 10:30 PM »

I ran the installer (sandboxed), selected the portable option... HS6 autoinstalled the bigseekpro toolbar.



For a portable version... use 7-zip to extract the files from the installer and then delete unnecessary files (hstoolbar.exe, hstb.exe, etc.). Run the program, enter your key, configure and save (.ini file) in the application folder.

Stop the service and then go to the registry and delete the key  @  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services key

You could also start CMD and type:
sc delete <service name>
Reboot the system

BinManager is shell context menu command for deleting old items from Windows recycle bin, as well as a scriptable component for managing the recycle bin. You can use either feature, or both.

Have you tried downloading it through the shareup link? You will be downloading the latest freeware version. Look at the date... I think shareup just did not update the entry.
