I can 
recommend CSI Unfair Advantage and Reuter's (using the free MetaStock 
downloader).

CSI 
has the advantage of having backadjusted and actual prices.  IMO, their 
data is also much cleaner.   You would have to use their utility to 
convert from their internal format to MetaStock or ASCII 
format.

You 
should also consider TC2000 data.  It comes with some excellent, free 
software.

  PMTo: amibroker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxSubject: [amibroker] Is 
  there Historical data already adjusted for 
  splits?Which (if any) of the data vendors (e.g., 
  Yahoo, MSN, etc) supported by AB provide data that are adjusted for 
  splits? I know Yahoo does not. It sure does screw up your backtesting when 
  they don't :-(.Yes, there is the AB purify tool, and it's great if 
  you're just testing a stock or two, but if you're testing a bunch, should 
  you really have to run down every possible split?Thanks in 
  advance,ChrisSend
