For any member using Returnil 2008 with an expired license which won't update, you can apparently fix this by uninstalling and re-installing the application.
There are two ways to address this:
1. As Firebytes explains: If you have the installer file, simply uninstall and then reinstall. This will reset the licensing. (HINT: when 2008 installs, the installer file is copied and becomes the uninstaller if you do not have this available...)

Running Returnils Uninstaller will give this screen:
I won't be trying this myself until mine expires, but if anyone isn't happy with the uninstaller method, pm me.
I'm a little confused, Dennis. In the screenshot of the uninstall procedure for Returnil, you have "Repair" circled, but the "Remove" button is checked. Which one should be used for this purpose?
For anyone getting close to this expiration situation, it's critical that you keep track of your Serial Number if you wish to continue using Returnil 2008. You can't re-register version 2008 through the Returnil site -- nor is it possible to still download that version from their site.
I just went through this, so here's what will happen at expiration. The Serial Number will disappear and the SN field will be blank. There's no way to retrieve that number unless you have it recorded somewhere. However, if you do, you simply go to the Register product screen and re-enter it -- and you're off and running for another year.
