There are a couple other threads on here about Loquendo and some other TTS applications, but I wanted to share this one since it's free (today only) and from a reputable source so it's clean too.

Also, I was searching around for free SAPI 5 voices, and happened to come across this site which is offering downloads of the Ivona and Nuance voices. It says they are good for 30 days, but you can probably work around that (such as installing/uninstalling them with Revo).

Again, this looks to be a reputable site, and would be safer than messing around with cracking sites and torrents.
Also, some other free options:
Cereproc has a demo of their TTS product, just enter your text in the toolbar at the top. The "Hanna" voice is very high quality. And if you have Internet Download Manager installed, you can grab the audio file, to use elsewhere, such as in a video presentation.

Acapela also has a demo, and you can do the same with IDM. Very high quality voices too:

Cepstral offers a demo too, but their voices kind of suck:
