InterActive supported software scheme                     25th January 1999
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since 1993 InterActive has offered a convenient way to register 
non-commercial software. The scheme was launched by Joe Connor to 
encourage 'foreign' authors to produce and support English language 
versions of their software AND to encourage UK users to register their 
software.
Currently InterActive attracts registrations from all over the world and 
currently supports over 50 non-commercial titles from dozens of different 
authors with thousands of registered users.

The authors and translators deserve your support so if you're regularly 
using any unregistered software please register today.

What's new?
-----------
Running InterActive takes time - lots of it. The time taken composing 
registration letters and manually duplicating disks to send out in the 
post could be spent working with the TransAction crew to translate and 
bring you more software to choose from.

Many InterActive customers are online and all the InterActive software is 
available on-line so we've decided now is the time to encourage email only 
registrations by offering reduced registration prices across the board for 
email only registrations. If you'd like a registration letter and master 
disk it's no problem - you simply pay a pound per registration taking the 
fee back up to its original price.

The currently supported software is:

Country specific information
----------------------------
Europe:    Post Office GiroBank money orders or Eurocheques are the best 
           way to pay.
France:    For some reason I'm getting a number of local cheques (i.e. 
           written in Sterling but drawn on a French bank address.
           I cannot accept these because my bank charges an expensive fee 
           for these (more than the cheque is usually worth!) - please use 
           the Post Office GiroBank system.           
Canada:    The Canadian Post Office can issue money orders in *Sterling*.
           These are hassle free and inexpensive!
Australia: Australia Post only sell overseas money orders in US dollars so 
           please get an International Bank Draft made out in Sterling 
           drawn on a UK bank address.
NZ:        Please visit your Post Office and get a money order made out in 
           *Sterling*.
USA:       I can't accept local cheques.
           If a day trip to a Canadian post office is out of the question 
           :-) an International Money Order made out in Sterling (please 
           add extra 5 to order total) drawn on a UK banking address is 
           the safest but most expensive solution.
           Amex/VISA/Thomas Cook travellers cheques made out to Joe Connor 
           in Sterling (please add extra 5 to order total) are also 
           acceptable.
           For smaller orders, AT YOUR OWN RISK, dollars cash in a "US 
           Postal Service Global Priority mail flat rate envelope", is the 
           cheapest option - these envelopes cost less than $4.
           Please contact me first to ask for a price in dollars.

Response times
--------------
Email response time is usually same day with keys mailed out on receipt of 
funds. All incoming email is read and bugs are reported back to the 
authors. If you don't get an immediate reply to requests for help it's 
likely we haven't got anything helpful to say at that time.

Due to the number of people whi support InterActive along with my other 
commitments postal registrations take longer than I'd like - although 
usually within 28 days. Please be patient!
