I had similar problems with a {vapor|soft}ware company - not TechniSoft -
and I finally had to resort to a certified return receipt letter explaining
that I expected a refund within 15 days of the receipt of the letter or I
would feel compelled to turn the matter over to the postal inspectors.
I received a refund check (and it did not bounce :-) in the same mail
as the return receipt.  This method of obtaining the attention of a
non-responding mail order outfit was suggested to me by someone at the
post office who claimed it was 90 - 95 per cent effective.  I heartily
suggest that anyone else with this sort of problem try this method of
obtaining a refund.  Of course, you have to decide that you are fed up
enough that you do not want the alleged product ;-).
