Hi John,

try:

www.freeyellow.com/members/padan

this will take you to the other web page and you'll be able to grab the
software.
Read the doc file especially for hardware compatibility issues.  I spoke to
the author, he said he's got the windows version albost completed and he'll
upload a beta version of it soon on the web.    Let me know what you think
of it.

Ciao!

Sergio
