New Windows XP PowerToys released today... (URL inside)

[CZroe]

Months ago, Microsoft pulled PowerToys for Windows XP from their website with no explanation. Later, they said that they were improving PowerToys and it would be back soon. They set a date, then missed it. An apology has been on the homepage for a couple months now. The PowerToys are finally back, although Microsoft hasn't said exactly what has changed. There is no way to download the entire package anymore, but that's OK because I only use two of them anyway. ("Command Window Here", and TweakUI)

Enjoy!

Is it just me, or the downloads from M$ is screwed up? All the "toys" I tried they stop midway through the download...

They must be having a lot of traffic now.
When I downloaded the files, every one downloaded in less than 1 second. (over broadband anyway)

jjsole:
Same here. I really thought they had forgotten about the PowerToys...
