    augiedoggie The Canadian Loon - LocoAugie (R.I.P. 2012)

    Just found this site, no spyware that I can see so far. You must apparently register within 24 hrs to keep the program running.

    Today I found CyberPower's Audio Editing Lab which at first blush looks really good, I'll have to play with it more before I can make an informed opinion.

    They look legit but of course if you mods find this unacceptable, do what you must.:)

    Might pay to bookmark it. and check it out daily for a while. Targets visitors, using Google, in my case, with lots of links for Aussies to carry out surveys, etc., for cash, as well. Bazza

    Re: giveaway of the day

    I used to get the daily email from them. A lot of the "giveaways" are free trials. I haven't looked into it but I think it is another marketing tool for companies to get their product seen by more people. I have nothing against the site, just think that the trial part is sometimes obscured.

    Bookmarked it for future reference.

    Seeing as how I generally make a few bucks by picking up used PC's at auction and then reselling them, I have a few pieces of software that can adjust for the current lack of updates and such that seem to be the issue with the stuff you get from this site....

    JUst a matter of having the correct keygens :)

    While I have never used kilomoles, I use moles regularly. My guess is kilomoles is used for very large amounts of a compound.

    12.011 grams of Carbon=6.022*10^23 atoms=1 mole of Carbon..
    Assuming kilo=10^3, then 1 kilomole=1000 moles.

    I used moles trying to make gunpower once. Never was sure I got it right. Probably not, since the powder didn't flash worth a hoot.

    Re: giveaway of the day

    Sorry to burst everyones bubble but this site can give you major problems therefore I must close this thread and remove the link.

    I myself have been downloading from this site for at least 2 years (probably longer) and have not personally had any problems b/c I am not only very selective in what I download, I also scan anything I download from this site using software I have installed and online to be sure it's clean before I run the installer.

    Many of the programs, screen savers, etc. contain malicious add ons such as adware on up to things like LOP. Some of these programs that are offered will be 'clean' when purchased directly from the vendor but will be bundled with garbage when offered as free through this site. I don't know if it's something the vendor does in order to still profit from the software or if it's something this site does.

    You should have seen some of the comments from users that got infected! Oh My!:eek: Needless to say...they started moderating comments.rolleyes
