Hi!

thank you very much for the post, it´s really helpfull!!! i would like to ask a question. I think I have deleted system check from my computer but on the process i clicked by mistake "buy now" on the page. Automatically a message of "congratulations for your purchase" came up but i hadn´t given any credit card details or any information. Now i am wondering if I have really purchased the program, if they could have taken my details from my hard drive or something to do the purchase????
