They've improved their download speeds a bit, only took 10 mins for all 3 files [314MB].

Ah I just mentioned this in the Digital Art thread as well where we discussed this application

Bit miffed seeing as I took up the $100 offer earlier in the year.:(

So the only decent part is the free tutorials for me.

I thought I saw a tS icon on your desktop pic in an earlier post. I'm just glad that I signed up for proTeam when I did, as my subscription would have been up for renewal round about now. If they hadn't made 7.6 free I would still have probably got it anyway as part of the proTeam deal, & I've got most of the courses already, & would have been entitled to grab the rest before the subscription ran out, so in 1 sense I haven't got anything extra as a result of them giving 7.6 away free. On the other hand, proTeam seems to have been [for now at least] rendered pointless & non-existant, so I don't have to fork out £226 [approximately - it's usually $449 to renew, which is about £226 at current exchange rate].

Zattoo is good if you want to watch freesat channels on your PC, includes channel 5 as well, can also get french/other european FTA channels if you know how to ;)

Use it from time to time.

Possibly a bit specialised, but for those of you who use daisy books....

This software is a FREE daisy player for windows.

Found this on my travels - free online storage for 10GB (ideal if you're about to format or backup) and £3.99 a month for 100GB of space (free for 14 days).

KeePassX

Cross platform password manager, handy if you use different OS's and want to use your encrypted database file between them. Also has a handy password generator.

Want to slipstream the latest Service Pack and all Hot Fixes to create an up-to-date Windows installation CD?

Then you need http://www.hfslip.org/

You'll need to follow the instructions carefully but it seems to do a great job. The hardest part is getting all the Hot Fix files from Microsoft. There are some complete(?) lists for Windows 2K, XP and 2003 here:

Yup no messing about with the Mods when it comes to spelling. :sniper:

The spamming ban was just an afterthought. ;)
