Hi,
The company in question is SoftEx and even without this particular
incident I would encourage anyone to avoid them like the plague, the
make the worst professional software I have seen, think VB.
Anyway, the lastest update is that say they can actually provide a
replacement disk for a fee of EUR 350 and installation fee of EUR 317.
This looks promising enough, so hopefully I can beat them down over the
price.
