Recommendation for Locating Great Older Versions of Software
I've got another blog entry in the works this morning, but even while prepping that I realized that there is one site that I use so much when I need a particular piece of software. Sometimes the software isn't around anymore and other times the older versions just seem to work better for me than the newer. When that happens, I go to www.oldversion.com. This website is an absolutely fantastic resource. They have tons of software, no ridiculously long ad-filled registration process, and I hope they stick around for a long time. If you haven't seen this site and you are looking for older versions of anything from MSN or Yahoo Messenger to Bearshare to Sygate Personal Firewall (a definite favorite) or Virtual PC - this site probably has it. I hope this is helpful!

Thanks for the info. Word of warning: when/if you upgrade to WinVista, most of the old stuff isn't going to work anymore. (I've heard that it has to do with the new graphics system.)
Thanks for your comment (and link!). I'll return the favor.
