I emailed Infopop today to inquire about the specifics of selling/transferring my license.
I was informed that I am not legally entitled to do so under the license agreement whatsoever.
Every software title I've ever known has a license that is transferrable. Is UBB the exception?

according to the license as I have it, you may transfer the license with prior written consent from Infopop. quote:
3. License Restrictions. You may not: (a) reproduce or distribute all or any portion of the Software to any third party; (b) remove any proprietary notices from the Software or any copy thereof; (c) sell, assign, rent, transfer, distribute, act as a service bureau, or grant rights in the Software to any other person without the prior written consent of Infopop; (d) export or reexport the Software in violation of U.S. export laws; or (e) use the Software in violation of any applicable law, regulation or ordinance. Further, You may not use the Software or any related services to develop, generate, transmit or store information that: (i) infringes any third party's intellectual property or other proprietary right; or (ii) is illegal.

yeah.. it looks like that's been changed to: quote:

what you have is what I would have expected. I didn't realize when I purchased the software that it had such a dead- "end-user" clause.

You could do what I did for someone here, I gave it away. It was well worth it to help the mods community.
