The only method known to work is that recommended below:

	----- blurb excerpt from  http://yuri.harvard.edu/  -----

For-profit companies should contact Molecular Simulations Inc.

Below is the standard reply to inquiries for the CHARMM program. 

We distribute the source code of the CHARMM program with documentation
to individual academic research groups for a $600 licensing fee. CHARMM
runs on a variety of UNIX workstations, including the SG Indigo
machines. No graphics are necessary. The present version of the program
being distributed is C27.

The license is issued to the head of a laboratory or research group.
Please send a letter with the full name and title of the professor in
charge of your group and formal mailing address. Describe briefly the
kind of research for which you intend to use the CHARMM program and the
computers you will be using. The letter should be addressed to:

The CHARMM Development Project
Professor Martin Karplus
Department of Chemistry & Chemical Biology
12 Oxford Street
Harvard University
Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138
