I am now using Babylon dictionary, but I can't find glossaries in Japanese as good as those in English and French. Do you know any other than Babylon dictionary; like Oxford's, Cambridge's, Webster's and Robert's?!

What exactly are you looking for, Japanese- English dictionaries? Japanese-Japanese dictionaries? English-Japanese dictionaries?

They've got this, but it's not free.

That's the unabridged Genius E-J, but the J-E only has 69,000 entries. (compare with the Kenkyusha J-E with 480,000)

Still, if you want a professional dictionary for your computer, $124 isn't bad.

Arigatou gozaimashite minasan;
Actually; I need a J-E-J dictionary . I have just downloaded Meikyo; and I'll download Genius a bit later and give it a try (too large file ).
As described; Genius gives examples and grammar hint and that's exactly what I'm looking for .

WWWJDIC is a J-E dictionary that is usable in reverse, with example sentences. There are a number of offline interfaces available for the core dictionary, some of which include the example sentences.

Eijiro, available online at ALC, is an E-J dictionary that is usable in reverse, with a multitude of example sentences. The dictionary is downloadable (from a different site), but you'll need an agent in Japan (if you don't have a Japanese address) to purchase the decryption key.

JBrute is one of those offline interfaces and is what I have installed on my laptop for offline use. JBrute is free.
