It's a great website which gives away handy programs for your PC. A different program is released every 24 hours.

EDIT: Noticed you have to pay for some of them. Sorry.

Thanks. Also, I forgot to mention you can view all of the released programs by scrolling down, and pressing the button called "previous posts."

Ugh, Windows programs.

They give them away for free. What's the catch? Just some simple adware that is bundled in, or something?

I know, I was just using "adware" as one of the reasons why they would do it.

Why would they waste their money to give out programs? I don't get it.

You really should try to read their webpage, it answers all of these questions.

EDIT: And if that's not clear enough, they probably make money from both visitors and product "advertisements" in the form of these downloads.

To get more people to try the product and buy updates. Its the same reason there are free samples of products in stores or online.
