The post that looks like spam but isn't

I was reading an article on Yahoo! news that mentioned that all three credit reporting agencies are required by law to give you one free credit report per year. Last time I ordered a credit report I ended up paying like $60 because I didn't read the fine print. Ridiculous. The article also mentioned that there are other web sites that offer you a "free" credit report . . . as long as you sign up for their service and pay a monthly fee.

GKrellm for Windows

The good news: someone has already ported GKrellm to Windows! The bad news: inexplicably, he doesn't host the software on his own site any more. I discovered another web site that saved a copy on their own server. I was able to download & install successfully. After installing the compatibility layers, lo and behold, it worked!
