I've come across and tried literally hundreds of programs since owning a computer, here are some I have found useful and fun! Most of these files are "zipped" or compressed files. You will need an unzip utility like Winzip etc. to open them. If you do not have one and you plan on downloading anything off of the internet, get one! Most files you will find are compressed to save space and transfer time. If you do not wish to buy one, I have included a link to a FREE one! Please read the "readme" file FIRST, when you open the zipped files, for installation and program information.
Check back, I'll be adding more soon!
