For Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8.

Pagan Daybook is a calendar to keep track of the days of the week, the ancient and modern tides and the pagan festivals and observances that fall on each day of the year. Far more interesting than a conventional calendar, it's something unique to put in the Startup group of Windows, or use as your screen saver. Never miss another solstice... or, perhaps more importantly, another saturnalia.

Pagan Daybook features an extensive database of listings — with five or six thousand years of civilization to draw on, it has at least one observance for every day of the year — full color graphics, an integrated screen saver, animation, user-configurable entries, selectable themes and various bits of magick. It includes a searchable calendar to allow you to query the database of observances.

WARNING: This software contains references to pagan beliefs and details from classical paintings in which some of the subjects aren't wearing very much. If this sort of thing offends you, please do not download Pagan Daybook.

This software is available for electronic delivery and on CD-ROM.

• Display the current day in the pagan calendar, with graphics, animation and other lore.

• Keep itself interesting by changing its appearance periodically.

Downloading and installation of this software: You can ensure yourself of a problem-free installation by reviewing our downloading and installation instructions. The downloadable installer can be used to install either an evaluation copy or a fully-functional registered copy of this application.

Important: You might see a warning during download or installation of these installers concerning possible "malicious code." These messages are generated by Windows if you attempt to download and install most non-Microsoft software. They can be safely ignored.

Norton Antivirus users: Norton security products may generate spurious warnings about downloaded software installers, including some of ours. They appear as WS.Reputation alerts. Norton may delete incoming downloads when it generates this warning. WS.Reputation is not a virus — it's apparently an internal reputation ranking maintained by Symantec, which gets confused from time to time. Please see our support blog for more about it. In the event that you encounter this warning, we recommend that you disable Norton Antivirus to complete your download. It does not indicate the presence of a virus or malware in our installer.

If you're upgrading an earlier installation of this software, please see our discussion of version 4 upgrades before you begin. Doing so will save you no end of head-banging and typing.

Pagan Daybook 3: Pagan Daybook 3 has been superceded by the current version 4 release. Its installers have been removed from distribution. We recommend that you upgrade to Pagan Daybook 4. Due to its increasing inability to get along with all the current releases of Windows, we are no longer able to provide replacement legacy installers for Pagan Daybook 3 to registered users. Not to put too fine a point on it, Windows has devised more ways to crash it than proponents of global warming have math errors.
