That statement is entirely false.. I have many tried out many "legitmate"
software packages from reputable software companies (Microsoft.. Symantec..
Adobe.. so on) and some of the trials have, in fact, required a valid email
address to download the software.

Fantastic - less reason for you to be concerned. I get the same thing with
my ISP.. But I also have other accounts.. gmail, hotmail, hushmail and a few
others. And the great thing about the free ones - technically the
information I provided them may be entirely false and thus have NO
association with myself!

Very true - many get them from posting their valid email addresses in
newsgroups such as these. Some get them from signing up for services - many
services are valid and the user fails to read the privacy statement of the
company they are giving their email address to.
However - to deny a potential software solution trial due to some paranoia
about getting spam (when you could use false information to sign up) seems
ludicrous to me.
