Note: Freeware is software mostly written by independent programmers who desire wider recognition of their work for a variety of personal and professional reasons. Some freeware is produced by companies to showcase basic versions of their commercial software. In all cases no fee is required to use and, in some cases, update the programs. These programs are obtained from trustworthy major source sites. However, the user accepts responsibility for use of the bonus freeware on the CD-ROM.
