Three things you could keep in mind:
1. This is actualt a Linux-related list, so posting Winduhs binaries
isn't exactly policitally correct :)
2. Don't post binaries to the list anyway, even if they're Linux.
Just send the URL or put it up for download or (in the worst case)
send it to me, I can put it up on the Linux-Delhi site.
3. 400K attachments are a PITA to download for most of us.
Oh, and finally and BTW:
4. You're welcome to love or hate any OS you like. No one is going
to make you sign a `I Hate MS' document in your blood when you join
the group.
