    I didn't see this anywhere, so please forgive if it exists.

    Perhaps on one of the sidebars, you can have a "Random" link which gives you a random program. It works for other sites so why not here? :)

    If it's not possible or the admins are too lazy don't want to it's okay. :cool

    Hi Aimee

    Nice idea and could link to our main downloads page and have say random pick of the day.

    Not in my remit to action changes like this but maybe Tim or Jim who's site it is may like this idea, while not every idea goes into practice it's good that you are getting involved and this king of new things, so cheers :)

    Was sort of a beta test for this one company. neat product, but we cant control updates, which made us not love the idea. Not that they are not reputable -- just the concept of it. I'll get the software to you.

    Hello,
    I had another idea, I would like to have a link to each of the 8 or 10 tools I download on a regular basis for the PC's I work on, maybe a logon and a list of tools I pick that would directly link to the Download page of each utility. So if I am at Aunt Erma's, and I don't have my trusty thumb drive I could login and click on each link to get to the latest version of each of them. a favorites list if you will.
    Thanks
    love the site
    Ed

    Bit rough on the Administrators I reckon. MA and CP are the co-owners and are quite busy in their respective fields of responsibility, 365 days a year. Lots of Forum/Malware experts, but most, I guess, are voluntary.

    I try and do a similar thing as you request, daily.

    Check out http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=218441 for the July 2010 daily postings.

    Is this of help? Constructive suggestions welcome. :-D

    Is there a link from the home page? I could have used this with a Win7 eval recently.
