I have updated the downloads page - the links actually work. there are three mud clients (gmud, zmud, mushclient) as well as an APR and regen calculator (.xls format - microsoft excel or the provided viewer required)

if you guys know of anything else that should be added, toss a comment below.

update (04.24.04) - added a zmud crack, a mushclient serial code, and MCL - MUD client for linux
