I’m old enough to remember when certain things were available free.
You don’t get things ‘for free’*. ‘Free’ isn’t a price; it’s the *absence* of a price.
Anyone got anything for expensive lately?
*Outside the USAsia, anyway.

Re doggie’s reference to ’simplistic’:, Kevin – it was directed to Caulbox’s usage.

When I first downloaded this & followed instructions for install/register, it worked great,,,BUT NOW,,it tells me I have only 30 days to use it. That sucks. Either make the downloads truly GIVEAWAY of the day or don’t. I’m not sure if this website is really what they say they are,,I see lots of similar reports on different software, days later, who knows what really works or not.

Thanks, but I think I’ll stick to Notepad++, it suits all my coding needs. And it’s free. http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm

If the author is planning on this being used in a windows Vista environment in the future they should migrate from old winhlp32 .hlp files to .chm as the former version is not supported out of the box in Vista due to it’s security implications that are incompatible with the vista “security” model.

#54 – Sorry Kevin, you are out of luck. Any software you download from the GOTD website can only be registered for that 24-hour hour period that the software is available for FREE. The zipped file you download from the website has a text file along with the setup file that tells you how to register the program during this 24-hour period.

If you have to reformat your hard drive, you will lose your registration for any of these GOTD programs you downloaded that are outside of the 24-hour free period that they were made available. You can’t go back and re-register the programs. If there are any of these programs you really like, you can purchase them from the game publisher, or wait until the software reappears at a future time and download it again. That is the way the website works. If you are around this site long enough, you will see the same games or similar reappear on a regular basis.

Thanks GOTD for giving us the opportunity to try out software we might not normally think about using. I have downloaded some from this website that I liked so much I purchased licenses for my grandkids computers. This is an easy way to evaluate all the different programs out there – both good and bad.

Hello,

I’ve written to you folks at GOTD a couple of times, I’m not sure why you haven’t responded. I have to do a clean reinstall and don’t know how to keep my downloaded software/games from your site. We were never given a registration key. Please help.
