I like that idea, either create a new thread and add sites as you go or the person who started this thread should edit the 1st post and list all the sites.

It's because of the local Akamia servers. As mentioned, look in this thread to see which others are available.Thanks Senast you are doing a great job.
I downloaded Quickbooks from Tucows and to my amazement it used the local account. (The link was intuit.com not quickbooks.co.za)Sites and Games for Local Accounts
So, you got yourself a local account for very cheap or your overpriced international account just got capped eh? Well, here is some awesome sites you may not even know existed for local accounts. Mostly anything that you'll do on a daily bases can be found below. If people like it, maybe this can be sticky'd? Only the best sites are added to this list.
If you have any useful websites to contribute, please do so.

Nice list... we should ask for it to be made a sticky and then Mr can just edit it whenever he finds something new becasue this is not the first thread regarding this.

local only account is capped
Some of these games require to log into a international site first, I think it is possible that some of these games that require international login can be played if you know the IP of the game server and try to connect that way, bypassing the international login. Thats how I connect to steam games when I'm capped.I hate to double post in a thread, but its the only way to show its updated. I really don't want all this work gone to waist and wondered if a mod could please sticky this thread, since I and a few others think its totally worth it.
In anyway. I've added 13 new sites which is totally worth visiting.thanks for the sticky support. I've still haven't found any good download sites, only SAIX Game Server site, which host demos and patches for the games it host servers for, but thats it. Does nobody know of a good locally hosted software site?
