registration download flow

I'm working on a product (toolbar) for a client that requires a download.
Has anyone done any research or have anecdotal evidence regarding

first?

Thanks,

Listing on Guru.com... no categories for us?

I thought I'd list myself as a freelancer on Guru.com, and was
surprised and distressed to find that interaction design, user
experience, usability, etc. etc. aren't among the many categories
you're allowed to select. Does this just reflect some ignorance on
the part of the Guru.com folks, or are our skill sets commonly omitted
on such sites? More broadly, does this omission reflect a *general*
lack of awareness and understanding about our field?
