Does anybody know what happened to www.old-software.com? It's been shut down for a while now and it did have some pretty useful stuff.

www.oldversion.com is a good site to download older apps, is that what you need?

Try viewing the site on waybackmachine: http://replay.web.archive.org/200906291 ... tware.com/
This site archives the whole internet, and I use it to get downloads from sites which have since closed down. It usually only works for sites which have http downloads, though. i did try downloading a couple things on this archived versions, and it worked. Good luck!

I cannot connect to the database because: Access denied for user 'oldsoft_chemil'@'localhost' (using password: YES)


The password set in dbc.php (database connect) is either wrong, their SQL server is down, or the database is corrupted/non-existent. I'm gonna go with the fact that the server is down since larger sites like this will use multiple servers for different things.

Or it's hacked by hackers.
