Problems with Roboform

Hi.
I've been getting a few viruses on my computer lately so I thought I'd do a few of the things suggested on another forum.
I used an online scan: http://secunia.com/vulnerability_scanning/online/?task=load . It told me to update some programs.
I updated firefox but then my roboform wouldn't work with it so I tried installing the roboform add on but it was incompatable with that version of firefox so I installed a different version of firefox. I had a free version of roboform, which saved a few hundred passwords, but now I can't access it as it keeps asking me to register it and pay for it.
Does anyone know how I can get my roboform back working again, I have tried system restore but that didn't help.

It sounds as though the free trial has expired and you need to pay and register to access it.
Try turning back the date on your computer, that should fool the Roboform programme into thinking the trial has not expired.0 -
I've been using the same roboform for the last two and a half years so the free trial ran out a long time ago. I have been using it everyday until I did this update today.0

you shouldnt need to restoire the system just delete it from your programs in the control panel and go download it again it should work, and dont store all your passwords on it if you get hacked then ur a easy pray to anyone going into ur machine, i use the same prog but only to fill out forms faster never to save passwords and ive been using it over a yr and never had any problems,try removing it from the control panel and download it again it should work:beer:
kind regards

Thanks. I will probably have to do that but I was hoping that I wouldn't have to just in case I would be restricted to the 30 day free trial with the new version.
I don't save any important passwords such as my bank only ones for the competitions that I enter.0
