Now i know this stuff is not as good as your own equipment but it is a useful

alternative to having your own weather station, there are some good

free downloadable desktop weather data websites and they do update

on a regular 30 minute basis so if you want to check them out for a

comparison against your own station here are just a few to try.

Apart from singer creations I wouldn't really trust the other software. They probably contain spying software bundled with them.

I'm not a fan of download.com anymore, sometime ago it was extremely useful as it wasn't bloated and was a fast website, now it's downloading is slow but I would still have a look there as they claim none of their software contains spyingware unless stated;

Well optimus i use all 3 and i've had no problems with spyware..most companies

that have downloadable software claim that they are spyware free..just make sure you have reputable antivirus/spyware software.
