    Hi

    Can you list your favorite sites to download software from? I'm looking for safe malware free sites where i can download the latest software from, like Download.com or Majorgeeks.com. Thanks for your help.

    Major Geeks is the place. They don't like spyware and have a forum as well.

    Nick ADSL UK is a big reason Major Geeks is a good place.

    I also like to look at Webattack.com to see what's new.

    1st:Major Geeks.
    Then probably Snapfiles(formerly WebAttack.com).
    Sofotex.com is good also.

    I usually like to get my software from the developer's site, but MajorGeeks is also good. Some of the software that i use is hosted by sourceforge so i go there too.

    this link below has links to alot of good sites that ive used and never got any malware from
    http://www.freeware-guide.com/top15fws.html

    and this site is also very good too. it also has the freeware book here which is a browser that only holds links to good freeware sites. also the links down the page abit (sites worth a visit), also see the screenshot, are good.

    Hey rock-n-roll,

    www.caiman.us/

    and

    www.pricelesswarehome.org/

    the latter produces the results, as consensussed
    by the members of Google - Groups - Alt.comp.freeware, which you might
    find worth while for discussion of the best freeware available.

    Regards.

    I'll also say majorgeeks and download.com, but about past favourites like simtel.net - I think they were bought over by Speedbit (DAP guys) and their content went down. I guess tucows.com still has a lot of credibilty left.
    BUT - I'd say GOOGLE is always the best place if u know what u want. Now I don't ned to go to any other site - google is like a giant web central station for me, switching me to a lotta stuff.

    MajorGeeks and Snapfiles here. Sometimes I visit http://sourceforge.net/
    I only visit that site to look at source codes being that I'm a beginer programmer.
