Of course it's still being used. It supports all the latest games

And it's far superior to gayspy.

I don't see the point is using any of those appos anymore. I bought gamespy way back, but I don't really care for it now. I just use an IRC script to ping servers because I play with the good people when I do play games online

ya know...Kazaa etc have pissed me off in that nobody shares. But the way the RIAA hounds people now, I understand.

BitTorrent, while great in theory pisses me off in that while forcing you to share the client sucks. That is why I use Another BitTorrent Client. Gives you more control than the standard client and actually makes the Torrent useful.

Another freebie I use is BWMeter. I forgot to turn that on and recently got another warning from my ISP While not free...you can (to quote Jean Luc) "make it so".

Another great one is AutoPatcher just for the fact that WindowsUpdate sucks my ass.

Will have to watch this thread as I am always up for a good free one...
