They offer downloads of different licensed software every day, mostly obscure but non free stuff. [Sorry for the barely comprehensible English, my brain is battling a migraine at the moment]. The catch is that each is only free to dl that one day:

Wanna know the real catch? You CANNOT install the program after the day it was offered, you get message that offer is expired.
So if you've been downloading the programs everyday and saving the installers, those won't do any good for you other than let you instal the same free trial you can get any day since the activator that comes with it only works on the day the software was offered.
I knew there had to be a catch to this and here it is - if you ever need to reinstall the software you are SOL.

So... why don't you just install it the day you download it?
It's not that big of a "catch", right?

If you don't like it, uninstall it later, or restore your system if you don't trust the uninstaller.

the problem is if you change computers...

Because today I happen to want to try one of the programs I got just yesterday and that's when I found out.
Also if you ever format your computer there is no way to reinstall it.
