I downloaded NET Extender early this week but found two of the demo .PRGs were missing but that the .BAK files were there. Also there is no way to contact the company or is there any name to be found as to who wrote it. The fact that the demo copy calls home every time you start VFP also worries me.

The .DLL I need to use is for interfacing with a payroll program that will be used by many companies and thus total security is a must. The above items cause me a lot of worries and for that reason I am reluctant to use it.
