Post by: Good Samaritan on May 28, 2010, 01:43:27 PM

        Has anyone heard of this website.
Softonic takes all of the virus,spyware free downloads on the internet and brings them to their website so its easier to find certain downloads (e.g Norton security suite 2010 trial) .


www.softonic.com (http://www.softonic.com)  

Other freeware sites:

ninite.com (http://ninite.com) is another great site for freeware.  Especially if you are doing new installs.
