MinishoterRS Delta is an amazing Japanese shmup that does everything right: lots of levels (including hidden ones), multiple selectable ships (including unlockable ones), great retro music and sound effects, optional boss battle mode for practice and plenty of other hidden extras. The game is played in very low resolution, though this can be magnified with the Q, W and E keys, and controlled with direction buttons along with A and Z. Though the website and program are Japanese in origin, most of the in-game text is in English.
An example of in-game video.

This game is loads of fun if you're a shooter fan. It's a little on the frantic side with some curtain-style projectile dodging, but it's got a good mix of ship options to suit anyone's preferences, and lots of content.

I agree that this little app is completely useless, but it has a high prank value. Since resulting html file can be nicely compressed with 7zip (e.g. 4MB->10kB), one can create sfx 7zip installer that unpacks and opens that html in browser, and since everything hangs when opening table so big, poor victim can only wait for it to completely load and watch some idiotic picture in the meantime.

This program is useless for protecting images. But it's great for when you can't use images. HTML only web hosting services, for example. |
Desktop Graffitist enables you to spray paint your desktop. You can copy your masterpiece to the clipboard using the "Print Screen" key, then paste into an image editor for editing or saving to an image file. You can use Desktop Graffitist when you are really bored, or leave messages on other people's computers.

Whitenoir converts any image to a strictly two colour monochrome image. Using a really simple user interface it's possible to convert any image in just three mouse clicks. The transformation is totally configurable. You can pick which two colours the resulting image should use and tweak the brightness threshold for the dark and light pixels to make your image more or less dark. You can use Whitenior for creating sharp bitmaps from pencil drawings

Mu-cade is a very unique shooter that is reminiscent of Centipede and the old classic Nibbles, with a healthy dose of smooth physics and King of the Hill gameplay. Keep from falling off the edges by pushing enemies off the playfield, either with bullets or your ever-growing tail. The physics engine allows you to use this tail in a variety of ways, and you can sacrifice your tail to wipe out enemy bullets and gain a little boost in shot power. However, keeping a long tail will give you large multipliers for points.

For files encoded with Lame, EncSpot can read the 'Lame Tag' and provide detailed information on the switches used when the file was encoded.
