Re: Great Freewares
 
Beware that more than a few "free" programs install spyware on your machine as a way of getting income from you anyway.
Not sure which of the above do so, but beware and always very carefully monitor the license and other documentation for such software (and be prepared for a hard time removing them if you get tricked anyway).

Especially download managers and mediaplayers are often inflicted with this, though no category is completely safe.

Catweazle Jul 18th, 2005 5:55 am
Re: Great Freewares
 
Definitely before installing any freeware program google 'programname spyware'

A bit of a read through the search results should soon tell you if that program is known to carry intruders with it.

Hey, is there a freeware junkmail defender that you can set up onto any e-mail accy, then to mass spam the sender (of the spam/junk)'s e-mail box with some swearing, over and over again?

That would rock ass.

System Information for Windows
 
This program performs computer configuration analysis and diagnostics. It gives detailed information about your computer properties and settings, detailed specs for:

- Software (Operating System, Installed Programs and Hotfixes, Processes, Services, Product Keys, Serial Numbers, Users, Open Files, System Uptime, Passwords hidden behind asterisks, Installed Codecs),

- Hardware (Motherboard, BIOS, CPU, chipset, PCI/AGP, USB and ISA/PnP Devices, Memory, Video Card, Monitor, Disk Drives, CD/DVD Devices, SCSI Devices, S.M.A.R.T., Ports, Printers),

- Network (Network Cards, Network Shares, currently active Network Connections), as well as real-time monitors for CPU, Memory, Page File usage and Network Traffic.

SIW can create a report file (CSV, HTML, TXT or XML), and is able to run in batch mode.

SIW is a standalone tool that does not require installation - one less installed program on your PC you may also run the program directly from a USB flash drive (Portable Freeware).

TerraIM
 
If you're looking for a standalone AIM Client,TerraIM is a fabulous client. It fits on a floppy disk (Around 700 kb) and it's a single .exe that runs (no install required). It works really well and has a nice set of features.

Kinda like a PORTABLE APP......

Very useful clipboard tool
 
It remembers what you copied to the clipboard even after new data is copied and allows you to retrieve the old data.

While there are many programs that do the same,none are quite so convenient,simple to use,or efficient as Clipomatic.

Great to fill in frequently used snippets (name,email,address etc) into web forms or insert signatures into your emails.

It would help to get a link to this amazing program you speak of. Without it we are lost in the dark. I may find something with a google search but wouldn't it make sense for us to avoid that step and provide us with the URL? Just my thoughts...

Have you had more experienc with REGSEEKER since you posted in June. I'm looking for a registry cleaner, and all the comercial ones I've seen so far are terribly expensive. I have 3 computers.

I agree CCleaner is great! Caution, though, if you give this to a newbie, only let them run the cleaner (not the other utilities) and only after you've analyzed to ensure they have nothing that could be problematic with custom apps. For a techie ... it will find most ills.

Thanks for your reply and my advice helped you.
Well Ccleaner is full verified it does not cause any malfunction to any program. And it also adds the new programs in her list when you install and use any new program.

I am confident using it because I have not found any problems with commercial apps.

I have, however, found problems with a few custom apps put together for some SMB groups. Most of these have to do with finding the last modification (surmountable -- remember what you did) but it is worth the caution as some users will have trouble with this. It is also worth a caution to developers ... following current standard practices helps avoid the problem.

I have read some ppl having alot of issues with CCLEANER,i took a look @ it one time and didnt like it,REG SEEKER is much better (And disk cleaner as a temp file remover)

To each their own. I use it for some circumstances. JV16 is still one of the best (and the last freeware version still works on XP). Regseeker looks like another good option --- some of this is in the interface and how we use it.

Well i checked the new Ccleaner 2 (beta) but it have minor bugs so i uninstalled. Currently using v1.41.544 its running smooth and never found any bug with it.

CCleaner is much better than REGCLEANER :P

Anyway, For a freeware media player try Xion. Its good and skinnable.
