I visited the author's website for this product a few weeks ago and (at
that time) he states that this product is not free.
The author requests that you buy a license, if you continue to use the
product.
So it's actually shareware - try-before-you-buy.
As I recall, the site lists licensing schedules for single-user,
developer, and corps.

BTW, I found the ODBC driver available at SourceForge to be quite
adequate, and it IS free.
