There isn't an unregistered message it just appears in the title and thats it.

BuBBy is correct. It's personal usage only but without the "unregistered" message.

But the giveaway terms of GOTD forbid commercial use.

yes it is. But you could only use it for personal use. The key allows you to use it for commerical use.

What a waste of a giveaway... ha! :-D

Still, I suppose it eliminates the hassle of the unreliable activation process...

The only difference between the registered version and the unregistered is the display of a nag screen. That's it...no difference in functionality according to the author.

This I believe is freeware. From the GAotD terms of use, it wouldn't matter as it's exactly the same as if you didn't register it. =(

The only reason you would register is for commercial use. And GAotD offerings cannot be used for that so legally, it's the same as offering SmartFTP as a GAotD offering (Which is also free for personal/educational use)...which is stupid.

And:

Places that state it is freeware:
