Why go to the trouble of hiding the URLs for the links you have on that
page, and the redirect to your personal site? I for one was concerned about
not being able to see the target for the shortcuts!
http://www..com/sw/catalog.php
would be a better page to use - couldn't you get freeforwindows hosted
somewhere?

The site is piggybacked (framed) on my personal site because I wanted
to wait and see if it would be worth the money to host it by itself.
Actually the site grew out of my personal/school site so this was
natural. (see Free Apps for Windows link on personal site
http://www.richardsclass.com)

If the responce I have received in the past week is any indication, I
will be moving the site to a seperate hosting account soon. The change
you suggest will be made when the move is made.

Thank you for your input. My goal is for this site to be a place where
a community of those "In The Know" like you can share with those "Not
In The Know", like my students. Any and all suggestions are welcomed.

OK - I'll add the following, then

AIDA32 - the only 'legal' source for which is
http://www.aumha.org/freeware/freeware.php#aida32 (Jim E had dispensation
from the original author to continue hosting the last version prior to the
sale to Lavalys - AFAIK, no other site has this dispensation)
Google Toolbar (without the extras!) - surprised you missed that off, and I
couldn't live without it :)
XacePlus - www.winace.com/xaceplus.html (why? - it includes RAR unzipping!)
Irfanview - www.irfanview.com
SequioaView - http://www.win.tue.nl/sequoiaview/
