I'm assuming she's talking about the future Poser 5 upgrade that's not out yet. There was a big uproar over security and limited installations from the CD ~ something like 3 installations and it locks you out; you'll have to get a key to install it again. People who reformat their drives on a regular basis will have major problems with that. There are too many variables, such as hard drive crashes or corrupted Poser file, where you have to reinstall. I'm assuming Curious Labs has realized they would lose sales because people will refuse to buy the upgrade if it has such restrictions on it. I, for one, will be happy to stay with Poser 4 if 5 has major security restrictions. To me, it shows Curious Labs doesn't trust their customers. If the security thing really is being removed, then I'll be glad to upgrade to 5, if the new additions are worth it. Melanie
