After we advised you to escape your office last month, we imagine you're sitting at home now, work all done, looking for a new Web project to fill up your time. Hopefully we can help! Install the latest essential software from your disk and you're sure to find some inspiration.

For those of you with broadband, isn't it about time you gave that broadband connection a work out and got some value for your monthly fee? Use your new fat connection for more than just the standard streaming multimedia frenzy and get building. We've included the latest trial version of the industry standard Web editing suite Dreamweaver MX 6.1 for both Mac and PC - you get a whole month of fully-featured tinkering time with this ú300 package.

But perhaps you'd like to collaborate on a project with friends or colleagues, or need to convince your boss that it really is just as easy to work within a tight-knit team from home as it is in a stifling office. Macromedia Contribute 2 (for PC and Mac) is the answer. Install our huge demo direct from the disk and save yourself the download.

If you'd rather build for the small screen, we've included the Torpedo HTML Editor for Palm OS site creation, and handX weblog which will help you keep an online diary from your PDA. If you're feeling more frivolous, though, try your hand at ArtStudio and install the screensaver to see in real-time how computer artists get professional results out of their art packages. This is one of our favourites this month.

We've included dozens of other tools and apps for you to get to grips with, including a number of files to help you work along with this month's step by step projects, and the highlights of this month's Hot Downloads.

That's all for this month,
