WINCVS is a GUI not a version of CVS, it is 'CVSNT' which does all the
version control.  Check your WinCVS directory and you will find  copy of
CVSNT in there (cvs.exe).

You can purchase CVS Suite 2008 from the same people who write CVSNT and
it includes many extra features including a commercially supported build
of WinCVS.  All the details including pricing are here:

The GPL and 'Free Software' is absolutely not about price.  The
development of more/improved free software is only possible because
people contribute (either like Jens with hours of coding/support, or
like Lakshmi by paying for other people to develop/support):
