When a shareware program that's been d/l-ed has expired, how can you
find and delete the file or cookie or ___ (whatever) that keeps users
from d/l-ing the program again and getting another 7 free days of
usage? - Thanks for any help.

By paying for the program, of course.

If your goal is to circumvent license terms of software someone took
the time to write and that you find valuable, I'm hoping you won't
find help here.

On a more academic level, registration and copy protection schemes in
programs vary widely, so the question you've asked isn't even
answerable in a general fashion, even if someone wanted to assist you
in your goal.

What happened was this: I d/l-ed a mpg-joiner program, free for 7
days, then... life happened... days passed and I didnt get to use the
thing even once. So it's not as if I'm trying to 'abuse the
privilege'... that I never partook of to start with.

Use Total Uninstall when you install it, uninstall it with TU, reinstall,
rinse, repeat, wash, etc
