WinPatrol Plus/paid version giveaway free for jobless people

(Scotia, NY) WinPatrol Supports Unemployed Job Seekers
It’s no secret that the unemployment numbers around the world are at an amazing high. At least once a week I receive a plea from someone who is unemployed asking for a discounted upgrade to WinPatrol PLUS.

For someone looking for a new job, a computer is a must have tool. Unfortunately, they’re also the targets of scam artists who take advantage of folks who need help the most.

In response to the need to protect and help the unemployed I’m giving away our $29.95 single user license with all the benefits of our standard WinPatrol PLUS upgrade. As a computer professional I’ve been blessed never to be without work but these days unemployment can happen to anyone. Visiting new web sites is a time when WinPatrol PLUS is needed the most. I’d much rather have someone using their time to find that perfect job instead of fixing computer problems.

All that’s required is to scan in or provide a screen capture proof you have recently received unemployment benefits or other reasonable proof of unemployment. Sorry, but you can’t just Email support@winpatrol.com and say “I’m unemployed, give me a code”. Some evidence is required but our give away is even available to our friends outside the U.S. Requests will be will be processed within 24-48 hours.

Here’s an example of what New York State provides to those receiving benefits and the kind of proof acceptable.

I’ve blurred out the name on this example but when you send proof you should just blur out your social security number or other private information I wouldn’t need. Send your proof to support@winpatrol.com or mail to
BillP Studios
32 Sunnyside Rd.
Scotia, NY 12302
Include your name and Email address printed clearly in your request. Your information will of course be considered confidential.

For now, this is a limited offer available until the end of August 2010. If you know someone who is unemployed but could use WinPatrol PLUS send them here to http://bitsfrombill.com. I challenge other software companies to do the same.


* A screen capture using Windows is possible by pressing the Alt key + the PrtSc key. A image of the current window will be stored in the Windows clipboard. You can then open your favorite paint or photo program and “paste” into a new document. Edit out your SS# if it’s visible and attach the file to an Email to support@WinPatrol.com

I thought I might share this with you guys since this is great software and a generous offer by Bill.

This is a very generous offer. It is legitimate. I tried it since I qualify. I am unemployed, I sent proof I am unemployed (my diploma for a job search program run by the government) Bill is a great man for giving away his paid software to the most needy of people who need a computer which is reliable! He also replies to e-mail very quickly. I'm currently using the software and loving it!

Very few companies do this most just let you use a trial which expire in 30 days or less. The paid version has been Great I have been using it for a few days now. I like the Real time Shield. It makes me feel extra safe on my computer since I'm not as afraid of my antivirus missing something or not stopping a virus as much.

well since this company went as far to give it out free, I decided it be worth getting. So far the full version has found nothing wrong or catch anything.
