Sure you can watch the weather channel, but you may not always be able to get the channel.. say at work.... Take your Pick from "Weather Watcher" or "Weather Pulse" both are great FREEWARES that do not have any of the spyware and bloat of "Weatherbug".

Don't bother trying to get Weatherbug and removing the spyware yourself... these two programs are great alternatives and spyware free anyway]]> Yahelite - Yahoo Chat Client Thu, 30 Mar 2006 21:47:42 -0500 http://www.yahelite.com Yahoo Chat Client YahELite

This antivirus is also known as "Defender Pro Antivirus" ... found in stores like "Walmart"

Everyone has their own opinions on almost everything, but I must say, this is what I have used since about 1997 (give or take a years) and it has always detected malicious software before it does any damage, unlike certain antiviruses (see my Website for details) that wait until the virus is fully on your system (and sometimes infecting) before it tells you. Kaspersky (or the old name "AVP") has always has always told me ... BEFORE the infected exe/zip was even done downloading. I WOULDN'T feel safe on a computer (not counting spyware infections) without Kaspersky!]]> Maxthon Thu, 30 Mar 2006 13:45:31 -0500 http://www.maxthon.com Web Browser Main Category - Internet Programs

This is a great, SPYWARE FREE Internet Explorer clone.
