Who are we?

Filip was trying to run a brand new bouncing screensaver on his PC and got his first missing DLL error, opengl32.dll. After several months of frustrating online searches, he launched a website where people could download this single file. At first, the website was hosted for free at the Swedish hosting provider Passagen.
