http://www.freeforwindows.com is a catalog of dozens of free, quality
windows applications that are free of malware, nag screens, or trial
versions.

If you are reading a message in this group, you are not the type of
person that this site was created for, but you ARE the type to let me
know what should be added to make this site complete

Thanks for your help.

Rich

Why go to the trouble of hiding the URLs for the links you have on that
page, and the redirect to your personal site? I for one was concerned about
not being able to see the target for the shortcuts!
http://www.{removed}.com/sw/catalog.php
would be a better page to use - couldn't you get freeforwindows hosted
somewhere?

The site is piggybacked (framed) on my personal site because I wanted
to wait and see if it would be worth the money to host it by itself.
Actually the site grew out of my personal/school site so this was
natural. (see Free Apps for Windows link on personal site
http://www.richardsclass.com)

If the responce I have received in the past week is any indication, I
will be moving the site to a seperate hosting account soon. The change
you suggest will be made when the move is made.

Thank you for your input. My goal is for this site to be a place where
a community of those "In The Know" like you can share with those "Not
In The Know", like my students. Any and all suggestions are welcomed.

OK - I'll add the following, then

AIDA32 - the only 'legal' source for which is
http://www.aumha.org/freeware/freeware.php#aida32 (Jim E had dispensation
from the original author to continue hosting the last version prior to the
sale to Lavalys - AFAIK, no other site has this dispensation)
Google Toolbar (without the extras!) - surprised you missed that off, and I
couldn't live without it
XacePlus - www.winace.com/xaceplus.html (why? - it includes RAR unzipping!)
Irfanview - www.irfanview.com
SequioaView - http://www.win.tue.nl/sequoiaview/
