Hi all,
I downloaded new yanoff with the intention of loading it on my Tungsten T
PalmPilot. It seemed that to use the Yanoff+ version on a trial basis, I had
to allow the installation of another program as well, pda-wallet or some
such, a program which according to it's documentation, I had to allow to
'phone home' on my internet connection. I found the prospect of this
unacceptable so I opted to install yanoff- instead. I found that a lot of
the program buttons and menu items generated nag screens and advertising for
yanoff+.

I am currently using GPL Yanoff and find it adequate to the task, but I'd
like the opportunity to try the full Yanoff+ program if can install it
independently of the other pda-wallet software. Can anyone suggest a way to
do this?

Thanks

Rog
