peasepud 59 Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 Down them All is handy if you find a good porn site and want to grab all the pics Its quite a good download accelerator as well. If you use gmail and dont have webspace then GMAIL Space is handy for remote storage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44776 Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 www.siteadvisor.com Installs as an add-on to Firefox, and then when you do a Google search gives a green tick next to sites that are safe, and a red x next to sites that aren't - ones that will put dodgy shit on your computer. Costs nowt. Also adds an icon in the bottom right of your browser which goes red if you go to a site it doesn't like the look of. Foxmarks is also a good add-on which allows you to sync your Firefox bookmarks across various computers. Also, if you were to buy a new computer, all of your bookmarks are stored on a server so you would just need to reinstall foxmarks, log in and all of your bookmarks would replicate onto the new computer.

Lazarus 0 Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Cleans up the shite on your pc http://www.ccleaner.com/ Perfect Disk (defragger) http://www.raxco.com/products/perfectdisk2k/ NOD32 (Anti Virus) http://www.eset.com/ XP Smoker (Tweaks your OS to give it extra oomph) http://www.xp-smoker.com/ Windows Server 2003 (Just like XP but stable) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Server_2003 This is now my OS of choice. I'd also recommend looking at the TinyXP versions of XP - theres also stripped down versions of Vista, Office and Server2003. Best for those serious gamers (where every mb of ram and clock cycle counts) and those with systems whose specs arnt that great. XP can run on 40mb of ram, beieve it or not!).

Jimbo 175 Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Network Setup program Network Magic Effortlessly sets up networks on PC's, download the trial version on to which ever PC's in your home you wish to network, share files, folders and printers, once the network is set up the program is no longer required.

I installed it and AVG flagged it as a trojan! Sometimes things like that don't like each other much (sometime purposely so). Probably doesn't mean it is, but then again. At the end of the day with sensible security you shouldn't need it in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
