SOFTWARE & FREE STUFF

Grid Org. Now here's some good you can do for all of humanity and it won't take any of your energy, money or time! More than two million computers around the world are battling cancer and terrorists through Grid.org. This organization harnesses the unused power of individual computers. Working together, they solve unimaginably difficult computational chores. They're currently working on three projects: cancer, anthrax and smallpox research.

Ad Aware : A lot of companies distribute applications which they call 'ad ware' (advertising supported applications which instead of paying for, you agree to watch ads... or in some cases unknowingly agree to have your computer/internet usage tracked) ,often referred to as 'spy ware'. Being tracked is bad enough, but what makes this even worse is that many of these applications actually interfere with your other more important applications! Ad Aware not only detects these intrusions on your privacy, it also completely removes them from your system (as many of them don't go away when you do a standard un install through Windows). Geeez, ever sneaky, eh?

AllChars : Now I really like this, and sometimes really need this program! When typing something, have you ever needed an accent (like į), or a currencey symbol (like ¢), or fractions (like ¼ ) or whatever? Well, with this gem, it's as simple as hitting a couple of keys (regardless of what program your using) . And of course, it's free. Have a look, eh?

AnsweringMachine: Now this is dumb, but verrrry funny! Are you still using the default message that was supplied with your telephone answering machine? Want to amuse your callers? Here you will find the largest collection of answering machine messages available anywhere. Sections include comedy, musical, weird, etc. Messages can be downloaded in MP3 format, then recorded to your machine to the delight or frightened confusion of your friends.

Anyware Software:A good Antivirus, It's Free and its fast!

Appload Notify, supports all popular web based email such as: Hotmail, Yahoo, Lycos, Altavista, Go - Infoseek, CNN, Snap-email.com, Euroseek and Caramail.This baby has features like : fully customizable notification alert, automatic internet update, automatic connection to your email account inbox, startup email checking. It can even connect automaticaly to the internet if you're off-line and then hang-up if it finds no new emails. You just gotta love this kind of free technology stuff, eh?

AVG AntiVirus : Get a copy of the AVG 6.0 Anti-Virus System Free Edition and you will be able to use it for an unlimited period of time. With it, you'll get a high-end software solution for reliable protection against the threat of computer viruses. You also get free monthly updates. Great program and you can't beat the price, eh?

Bookmarklets : Wow! New word, new concept! I'm not sure how to discribe these techno gems. They're a combination of browser bookmarks and Javascript code. They work on all platforms (Windows, Macintosh, Unix,...) You don't have to download or install software to use them. Bookmarklets lets you: modify the way you see someone else's webpage, extract data from a webpage, search more quickly, and in ways not possible with a search engine (have a gander at the "More Info About" bookmarklet), and they'll let you navigate in new ways. There are over 150 bookmarklets available. Ahhh, do yourself a favour and go there and try one, and then you'll see what I mean!

CD coverer : Hey Dude, are you burn'n your own CDs? If you are, then you're gonna love this! The program makes it easy for you to print out any type and size of images in the right size for the front and back for your CD box. Now "your" CDs will look like you actually bought them. Cool, eh?

It works just like any real copying machine, but has some additional capabilities.You can save images to disc and print them later without having to scan them again. You can also zoom in on a particular part of a document and copy only that section. It copies in colour or black and white, and it's fast too!

CorkBoard: It's a screen saving, note taking, picture hanging, memo minding, almost organizing, calendar keeping, interactive bulletin board..and more! And it's FUN! Com'on at least have a looksee.

Cursorskins.com: If you want to know what's like to have a little brother or sister always following you around, then you've just gotta have a look at these mouse tails.

Rambooster: When it comes to handling memory, Windows grabs huge chunks, even when it doesn't need them, and programs are left to fight it out for virtual memory (from the hard drive). RamBooster monitors memory usage and, when it gets down to a predetermined level (usually 10% of RAM), it automatically recovers lost memory. You can also manually recover lost memory (often 50% or more of the total RAM). it prevents many of the blue screens and system lock-ups.
