Today I downloaded the AS6 and I noticed this right next to the download link:"Expiry date: Thursday 09 February, 2006"Does this mean the download will no longer work after that day or what?

Hi,Yes that is how the system is setup, to expire the links after 30 days. You are expected to backup the installation package as we can never guarantee unrestricted future downloads. The 30-day expiration also helps us a bit to prevent piracy. You can always of course contact our support email address ([email protected]) and request a new download link. While we don't ever guarantee lifetime re-download service, that is how we've been doing it for several years now. In short we'll always take care of you :)Best,
