Welcome to the download page. Here you will find freeware programs. Please
tell me if a program is malware. Meaning that it's a bad program and does more
harm than good (most likely spyware). I will try to test the programs before
posting here, but it's not always possible since there are so many out there.
So if anyone tries out a program and it's not what it's said to be, I will check
it out. To be safe, you can download and run Adaware and if spyware is detected,
please email me indicating the program in question. The programs will be sorted
by categories. If you believe that a particular program belong in another category,
email me and I will change it if I see that it fits. If you have any good programs
to recommend, feel free to email them to me.
