Software that monitors children's computer time?

I need some help. I own a piece of software that monitors computer time usage. Our website gets lots of traffic and lots of downloads, but, i'm having a hard time converting trial users to customers. Any suggestions?

I should add that all users can download a free demo version that last 5 days, after that they have to register the software and pay for it. The problem I'm having is that for every 200 downloads I'm only getting 4 or 5 sales. How can I improve that number?

The software can be found at http://www.childtimer.com/

Please don't think that I'm trying to promote my software by posting the website, I just need some good business advise and I know you would need to see the product before giving educated advise.

Update:

For every 200 downloads I'm getting about 1000 visitors to the website. Out of those 200 download I get 4-5 sales. I think the standard is 2-3% of visitors buy. I converting about .4-.5% into sales if we are looking at visitors to sale ratio.

    2% is about average. How about offering a discount if they buy within 30 days?
