send me the files and I'll set you up... 

freely. 

Freeware rules... but not without help

if you want freeware... help is always
appreciated in return. I dont ask for
much for better than usual software and
dont see much in return. 

So I know how you feel. Pity? Nope. Zen

Persistence will always work against 
entropy...
