at least partially (ALZip, ALFTP and ALSee only)
after December 1, 2008

used to be free, will require a commercial license, yes even for home users.

Alright, this is no release announcement, call it unrelease.

Ah well; there's always going to be a place where you can download the last freeware version...

yeah,
whitin Nov. 30th downloads are free and installed progs we are told will stay free,
the licensing starts applying to subsequent downloaded

(ALzip is the one I'm using among them, btw)

besides, there's also IZarc who is always a freeware archive utility

but what I was emphasizing is the tendency to go payable for home users too.
