What Are Some of the Coolest Utilities You've Found

[darkwish]

Xj,



Here is what I use. Give it a try. Just type "shutdown -h" and it will hibernate your machine.

Thanks darkwish! Where did you get this??? Nothing against you, but I don't want a virus or trojan. Also, is this freeware????

I tried it when you first posted it, but wasn't too impressed. I guess it was not as handy as I thought it would be. Doesn't (easily) let you run any plain DOS commands. It didn't come with uninstaller either.

I got it off of a website. I've been using it for a while now, so I don't remember. And yes it's free.

P.S. Found the website. http://www.budja.com/shutdown/

I've also been using Shutdown for quite awhile. I have it linked to MBM5, so if my system overheats, it will shutdown by itself.

Its good for a few programs that are either not on my Start/Programs menu or are buried deep. But it requires a habit of using it to make it convenient.

Yes, I think it is good if you get in the habit of using it. It wasn't very helpful for me and then just annoyed me a bit when it wasn't in the uninstall menu.

It's not a bad program though...just didn't end up being as convenient as I hoped it would be.

Check this one out ....

http://www.scriptek.com/i/p/detail/id/spamproofer

I build websites, and a friend just told me about making sure all e-mail links on any page were encrypted so 'e-mail trawler' progs didn't pick them up and send them on to spam co's etc ....

Freeware. Easy to use. Encrypts e-mail but web-user still sees normal text.

So I've tried it. Looks good. But I hadn't heard of this til now, so is there a genuine reason for using it? Or is my friend overly-protective??

Your thoughts?

Another RAR program worthy of investigation is TUGZip2. It handles multiple formats, and best of all it is free. You can find heir homepage here: http://www.tugzip.com/
