Sharing programs
I'm wondering how I can share programs here. I've got a few from some of the members but can't remember how to share with others.

I got a program once here that let us save all the drivers on our machine so we didn't have to hunt for them after a reinstall of win 98 ect.

I also had one of the mods ( It been a long time and I forget who now) give me three different programs for startup floppies.

I was just fooling around with the driver program. I think it let me put it in as an attachment. Maybe the trick is the file extension.

Big K, that wasn't the point I was trying to make. I couldn't figure out how to share some programs. I already knew where to get boot disks. But thanks for the tip anyway.

I know that, just saying. It's probably best to find a website where it's already hosted. If there isn't one, then the zip option is always there. You can also upload it to a thirdparty server like Xythos WFS(free)
