Note: Before installing this skin pack, create a system restore point.

The competition, ran with the help of Tsohost, has now expired. The following people have won and will be contacted by Tsohost soon:

  • Lise Caron

Congratulations Lise and Allen!

Last year I wrote a review on CompanionLink Professional v3 and CompanionLink gave us three licenses of CompanionLink Professional (worth $99.95), as well as their RunStart installation service (worth $39), which three lucky Windows Guides readers won.

Recently, CompanionLink have released their version 4 edition of their software, which I must say I love more than v3! I have posted an updated review here.

Very kindly, CompanionLink have given us three licenses of CompanionLink Professional and their RunStart installation service for three lucky Windows Guides readers again!

To enter, all you have to do is visit this survey by Sunday the 15th of May (11:59PM BST) and answer the questions on the survey. We’ll then enter you into our competition, and you could win.

Email addresses will be kept private (as always) however we will share the three winners’ details with CompanionLink for obvious reasons.

You can also download a 14-day free trial over at the CompanionLink website, by clicking here.
