hi there im lookin for a downloads directory to download freeware, shareware software products,
a bit like www.download.com
i do like using download.com but evrytime i serach something using download.com
my computer crashes and send a error report to microsoft, which pis*es me off.

so any other sites would help....

[skynet]

Well, I'm regularly go to Softpedia when looking spesific wares, they got almost all software that I need, from Adware to Freeware.
and also, what I like about that site are they have news section that filled with interesting news from around the globe.

http://www.softpedia.com

[moonwitch]

My personal favourites : http://www.sourceforge.net and http://www.cnet.com oh and http://www.freshmeat.com

Freshmeat and sourceforge are pretty much the same, with the same software (I think they work together) and cnet is pretty cool in trial software. Sourceforge is OPEN SOURCE ONLY and has more for Linux but a windows user can find his/her kicks there too.

[rvalkass]

I just search in the all-powerful Google. Just put in, for example 'freeware image editor -trial -demo' and I usually get what I am looking for.

[Static_Fury]

Handyarchive.com is my fav. and of cource Download.com and freeware.com

[aminzzlink]

hi Guevara ,

my favorit download siteweb is www.yacapa.net i always found what i 'm lookin for ; and for betas version or all news version you can found it in www.betanews.com , try these it may help you .

- there are also some siteweb like :

-www.zdnet.com
-www.01net.com
-www.info-du-net.com

or you can search in google in this way i'm sure that you will found that you are looking for

[Lessur]

I like http://sourceforge.net/ , it has alot of freeware and many sites use it as mirrors. Also, if you are just browsing for freeware you can look in catagoreys to find what might be helpfull for you. Download.com is good too, but if your computer crashes...... well that just annoying.

[Danieluchis]

hmm i usually download things at download.com isn't cnet.com and download the same thing? i heard it once, anyway Google is the king xDU lol j/k why don't you try the P2P programs? like Ares that is "virus-free"

[emperor]

I think that the best is always download.com, anyway I like very much Tucows and Zdnet, too.
Tucows

[Sprnknwn]

Tucows, Cnet, Sourceforge for open source community programs... and Softonic (this one not in english, sorry)

[Acidify]

I am sorry but I think this is considered spamming and I suggest youll read the rules and stuff because you can get credit tooken away i think or your site banned to watch out

[Acidify]

is spamming advertising sites or flooding forum?

no it not consider spam unless thier is a reason why you posted the link but double posting is a spam so i give you a warning on that.

anyways yeah sourceforge is good place for beginning programs to look at software and also a good way for them to fix anything if they find it as well.

tucow- for them its mostly web design stuff, good but don't use them anymore.

download.com-i end up here most of the time when downloading something since its a nice place to advertise your software

zdnet0 don't they work with another download website as well?

the other i dunno if you using combination of letters and numbers i think thats safe haven for virus makers to put their stuff up.

[k2wl]

i have couple of sites for download softwares
here they are
1.www.download.com
2.www.freeware.com
3.www.softpedia.com

6.www.zdnet.com
8.www.freshmeat.com

2.msn,
3.looksmart,
4.yahoo,

[U GON PIE]

I have most luck when searching google......it works almost everytime

[TripleH13]

i norammyl use download.com

[farrah]

i like download.com it has alot more than any other site i've been to.

[modeling]

I always use download.com i think there great and deserve more credit !
Its cool that they have so many programs and freetrials so u can try before you buy or choose not to buy based on your trial ( if u liked or didnt like a program or not). Befor i herd about download.com i was endlessly searching the progrma manufacturers for free trials but that can be really time consumeing and somethime impossiable but download.com has it all !

Really great Site www.download.com!

[moldboy]

I use snapfiles.com or for just freeware snapfiles.com/freeware I like how it is easy to browse and for a software junky like me I find some new stuff, that and not to many ads.

[Revolutionary.]

When Download.com fails, I toddle off to SourceForge. If I can't find anything there I run over to my bestest friend, Google. So yes, if you're looking for a good download site, these are excellent. Except Google's a search engine, but whatever...

[master34]

Download.com has really a lot of software..but before that i use google to find what i am looking for ;P

[Tonny]

here are some of download sites. i use them for finding everything i need. but if you are lookng for something special, type a serach in google and you will save time for seraching.
