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.

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. frown

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