Hi Daniel,
While Chessbase has offically removed the Fritz 6 demo from their site there are a few places where you can download it at for instance http://www.chess4less.com/ftpfile.htm It has quite a few limitations, if I can recall correctly it only lets you play a game up to 30 moves.
Also I heard a while back about being able to download Fritz 5.32 in its entirety while it being perfectly legal. I don't have the site handy but maybe someone here does.

I guess chessbase is the first place to search. But I think in general Fritz and Shredder are commercial. Asking for sending (free versions of) them by email maybe misunderstood and is not appreciated in this forum.

Absolutely, but there is a free version of Fritz 6 IIRC, something like Fritz 6 Light.
No free versions of Junior or Shredder AFAIK.
