No, shareware is not freeware. Usually, before using the software, you must
electronically agree (by pressing a YES button) that you will only use the
software a limited number of times or a limited number of days, depending
on the product. After that, you should either buy it or stop using it.
Paint Shop Pro is around $99 if you decide to buy it.
