Original (pre-Microsoft) SysInternals utilities
If you were a big fan of SysInternals before Microsoft went and bought them, you might be interested in this extremely unofficial list of their utilities from their pre-Microsoft days. Now for the warnings: we have not downloaded or tried any of these utilities, and do not recommend that you do so. Of course downloading files from an unofficial source is unwise for all sorts of security-related reasons, particularly utilities that function at the low level that SysInternals utilities do. Further, being that Microsoft now owns SysInternals, downloading these files is almost certainly not allowed.In fact, we suggest that if you're interested in the SysInternals utilities, check out Microsoft's SysInternals site and grab them from there. It's highly likely that once Microsoft catches wind of this unofficial listing of files, they'll get it shut down in short order.

This is taking the anti-MS mantra to a whole new useless level.

yeah! Microsoft can sue such sites for offering an unofficial release.

The day the SysInternals sale was announced, I hit the site and downloaded a copy of everything available. Good move, as it turned out.

This sounds a bit like the case of DVD-Decrypter... as soon as it was sold, the new owner wanted the once-freeware application removed from the net. Here's the caveat - the license of all previous versions was for free distribution of the software, the company technically has no legal right over the earlier versions which are in distribution under a public license.
Seems to me that this software could also face similar freedom in that MS won't be able to demand older versions of the free software be removed but they certainly can control their new (current) software as they please.

Why not just get them from Archive.org? Wayback machine?
