Downloading/Installing Updates
Note: These procedure require WinZip or PKUNZIP (from PKWARE).

---

To obtain updated executables only (perhaps for a bug fix), download/unzip ECSEXE.ZIP.

---

To obtain the BETA for the next pending release, follow instructions #'s 3-8 below, but download ECSB.ZIP (instead of ECS.ZIP).

---

To obtain updates from the Internet:

1. For ECS-Standard users: Email us for the current Authorization-Code (if you have not already received it from us). Without the proper code, ECS will run in Lite mode. One of the following upgrade charges apply, per your current version:

   ECS 1.0...3.3	$105
   ECS 3.4...4.0	$ 60
   ECS 4.1	$ 20

   These charges do NOT apply to those who purchased ECS in the last 6 months, or those who have have spent significant time beta testing (please remind us of this when requesting the code). If, for any reason, you feel that the charge should not apply to you, please let us know why and we will try to accommodate.

   We do not require payment before providing the code (your notice of intent to pay is sufficient). Send payments to:

   Omnipotence
   604 County Rd 181

2. For ECS-Lite users: One of the following upgrade charges apply, per your current version:

   See above for exceptions and address.
