Bah, it's limited to the first 2.5 million downloaders. It sounds a lot, but I doubt there'll be any left by the time I return from Publand.
Bumsticks.

Apparently it fucks up mp3 files, including those it can see on the network.
I don't know much more than that, but google will know.

Yep, can't download though, the site is under too much load. I've downloaded my free copy of Microsoft virtual pc 2007 from uni in preparation though.

It works without a serial for x amount of time, I'm running it without one.
So far I'm very impressed, I'd type more but my wrists are hurting
