Dominik, on your recommendation I downloaded Direct Access, did what I was told, and then when I opened it up I found I had only a 30-day free trial. I don’t need Giveaway for that.
I tried to email Direct Access customer support and got a screen note saying “the network is busy.”
I am not impressed so far.
Here is the note I attempted to send them:
“I got Direct Access on today’s Giveaway. I did what I was told to do. Now when I open it I find I have only a 30-day trial period.
“What is the problem? Please advise.
“Thank you.”
I hope I can get this straightened out before the deadline.

Dominik, I got the note through to the developer, and also sent the same not to Giveaway.
Have you ever had problems with Giveaway?

Daly,
I’m also using DirectAccess and am quite happy with it, and Andrea (the developer) is very reactive to problems.
My experience with the Giveawayoftheday website is that programs are delivered with a special activate.exe program which you must run first to activate the software (it tags it to register it and, I presume, to prevent you accessing updates etc.). If you failed to do this, you’ll get a normal trial version.
Hope that helps. I’m sure Andrea will be in touch with you soon!

Daly, also read the comments at http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/direct-access/#comments - it looks like you should receive a registration by e-mail - perhaps it’s been blocked.
