Since almost every software that goes commercial eventually drops their freeware version, I've set up a software mirror for the last available freeware version. (MD5 sum: 13DBC7B84232604DDACA90BB9296C9A8)

It seems like at least once a week a program's home page goes away or the author stops distributing the freeware version. Trying to beat them to the punch.

The user who suggested putting the entirety of PFW's programs in a torrent or something is looking more and more appealing.
