Sorry about that!  The "paid upgrade" alert was caused by a bug in 5.1 
beta 1; if you check for updates from 5.0.1 it won't say anything about 
paying for the upgrade.  (This bug was fixed in beta 2, so you 
shouldn't encounter this alert when the next release is available.)

Your license to OmniWeb 5 will be good for all OmniWeb 5 releases (5.1, 
5.2, ..., 5.5, and so on).
