Mr. Brown, I purchased your suite of plugins in 2001 or 2002 including the mastering limiter, dynamics processor, multiband limiter and deesser. Lately I have decided to reinstall and use them but I can't locate my authorization email or codes. I originally ordered them when I lived in Cleveland, Ohio, USA. I now live in Nashville, TN. (name and email redacted) Is there any way you can provide support to me to reauthorize my purchase? This is my second request without a response. Thank you in advance. (name redacted) cc:cakewalk.audio, cakewalk.coffeehouse

That's a bummer. Every time I buy something online that has install codes or other required installation info, I *always* burn two CDs of the install program and all associated emails. Then I email myself to multiple email addresses, all the install codes. That way I have a record of it in my sent folder, as well as in a bunch of other inboxes and archive folders. -- Remove YourHeadFromYourAss to Reply by email ________ __ / ____/ /__ ____ ____ / /_ ____ / / __/ / _ \/ __ \/ __ \/ __ \/ __ \ / /_/ / / __/ / / / / / / /_/ / /_/ / \____/_/\___/_/ /_/_/ /_/_.___/\____/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Glennbo http://www.soundclick.com/glennbo Non-Linear Sound http://www.soundclick.com/jambits Hear My Music http://www.soundclick.com/ThePseudonyms

When I say 'verified safe ones' -- I don't care what the source is. I mean verify it yourself -- or get someone that knows what they're doing, to do it for you. Kite, if you haven't gotten a bug from torrent yet (even so-called *verified* torrents) -- you will one day. Maybe not as often as with in-the-wild warez but it will occur. After all, Torrents contain warez and crackz, that's the whole point isn't it? (excepting legal torrents of course) -- Sue Morton "kitekrazy" <> wrote in message news:husf5m$u4j$-september.org... > On 6/10/2010 8:44 PM, Sue Morton wrote: >> At this point I'd use warez or crackz (verified safe ones, that is). > > Verified safe ones?

Yes I wholeheartedly agree to try and get his attention first -- if he's still around. But if not, then the crack or keygen is a consideration. Another (legal) consideration. If someone on this group lives in that area code, perhaps they could try contacting him by phone to let him know emails are going unanswered. Or perhaps he's physically located in the same area as his PO box and might be trackable to a business or other street address for a walk-up. (I once had some reservations about doing business with a web seller in Australia. A friend lived about 100 miles away from the guy, but generously offered to go look the guy up for me. A new friendship was born and I got the thumbs up to do business with the guy as well, which turned out great.)

Not that I use them; I prefer being a legit user with the right to product support. I once had to reinstall XP and I couldn't find my product key printout. Fortunately the previous install was still functional so I Googled for a keyfinder. Zone Alarm Security had fits, but I could specify the file to be ignored. Safe to do when you know that's the reason, but how can you be sure the keygen is all that's triggered the AV?
Wish I had a simple answer for that question, but I don't... For me it has been time and experience, a variety of techniques tools and tricks and a lot of research. For me it's the same game that lets me keep a/v products off my systems if I'm the only user of those systems, and nary an infection. Wish I could explain it better, sorry... -- Sue Morton "Phoenix" <> wrote in message news:-september.org... > Just curious, how do you verify warez?

For the record, db audioware is a small company and I still handle most support personally. When things get busy (or I am out of the office) lower priority requests like this can take a few days to process. It's a shame that the gentleman above was only willing to wait 36 hours before deciding that a public flogging would be an appropriate tactic. For the record, db audioware customers are guaranteed uninterrupted usage in situations like this. For older plugins (like the DirectX plugins in question here) a fully functional 21 day demo is freely available from our website, which gives plenty of time for replacement codes to be issued. Newer products have 24/7 online access to replacement codes and the latest software releases. Dave Brown db audioware
