So when you pay for this product, you are ensuring that you will have a successful, satisfying experience - or get your money back. You are paying to have the best product and the all the support you will need.

- The original Ares web site offers a free product, but often it does not work at all, and it offers no support

So, while there are 'free' versions, there isn't a version that won't cost you one way or the other!
