Default DTC lookup software
anyone know of a good program that looks up DTCs for free? i was using OBD2 DTC Lookup, but something about Windows 7 (or at least in my experiences) causes it to mess up when i try to search a code. i know you can get on here and you can google codes all day long, but this is for offline reference only.

i just hate having to get online every time i need to look up a code (although i have the codes for my rear o2s memorized)
