Did you pay for your account? Most companies I have worked for do not
provide technical support to the people who use the free versions of
their products. They view those more as advertising which will lead
to people eventually being willing to pay.
Of course even a free product is not good advertising if it does not work.
I personally have a free Hush account (although I've never used it for
much) and got through the 2.0 transition OK. So I guess the software
is not 100% broken. Perhaps your account got corrupted in the transition.
