Where to download XLobby?

[slaman]

I've been using the same version of XLobby for ages now... and now my sister (who is completely computer illiterate) wants me to build her a Media Centre.

Now that XLobby expires, where can I get the latest version that DOESN'T expire (since this would cause major problems for her - she lives 6 hrs away, so I can't drop by to fix things)

I don't mind paying for the software (given a reasonable price) when that's required, but for now, I just want to use the older version of XLobby that doesn't expire and my skin doesn't break.

Any thoughts? Thanks!

Any ideas?

If I was Steven or Wes I would not post the older XL since they are actually trying to make money on Xlobby. What do u think?

I agree, I just shared my thoughts on it.

I agree with you, its a bit "naughty" asking for the free one now

...on the other hand, I cannot imagine anyone using "commercial", that is, expiring version on their "production" HTPC...

Until there is one that does not expire that you can buy, I see no problem with downloading the free version. I versions that expire are simply "beta" in my eyes and I would never want them on my production box.

Just my thoughts

[slaman]

Agreed.

If there was an option to buy a non-beta non-expiring version, I would do that; however, there isn't that option... so I need the latest version that does not expire.

Anyone?

It's not like I'm trying to freeload - I will upgrade to the pay version once it becomes available.

No go? Come on guys - I have the EXEs, I just need the original installer....

I have a zip from Feb. 22nd but it is just the updates, I don't think I have an installer but I will look.

[slaman]

Thanks for looking into this for me...

I wonder what the last version is before the expiring one was released. Is it Feb. 22nd?

Do I even need the installer if I have a zipped up copy? I thought it adds a few entries to the Windows registry - no?

[S Pittaway]

nope, if you have the files then you are ready to go.

yep, Feb. 22nd was the last free release.

Thanks - that's all I needed to know!

You can download it at http://www.xlobby.com/xlobby2.zip

EDIT: Nevermind, that's the expiring version.
