EXPLANATORY NOTES

The purpose of this page is to promote quality software and its legal use. The programs were tested by MunteAlb (Alexandru Bogdan Munteanu) and subsequently declared the best în their category.
The vast majority of the programs presented on this page run on all (or almost all) the versions of the Windows operating system, especially the most recent ones (Windows 98SE, Windows ME, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7). However, some programs run only on Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7, and will not function on previous versions of this operating system. Thus, before downloading a particular sofware, the user must read the system requirements specified by the author of the program. Some programs function only if other software is previously installed, like the .NET Framework produced by Microsoft, Java Runtime Environment (JRE) produced by Sun or GTK+ produced by GIMP.
This page is best viewed with the option "Large Fonts" (120 p) selected în Display Properties or the text size set to "larger" (125%) in Internet Explorer ("View" menu) or in another browser.
