a2hijackfree v31016 seems to corrupt system.ini and win.ini when checking Autoruns. I was forced to scanreg /restore to get Win 98 up & running again.

FreePOPs is an extensible mail proxy that primarily allows checking and downloading email from popular webmail systems using conventional POP3 email clients without a web browser. Most email clients should be set to localhost:2000 as the POP3 server and use the full email address (eg. username@webmail.domain) as the username.

I love it. It makes ma Yahoo mail account usable. Only 1 problem: if you delete the email in your email program the file will be downloaded agsain until it is deleted on yahoo or whatever web mail you use.

As written by Jan, site doesn't exists anymore, and that provided by Jan works as website but not for the download, you have to go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/freepops/files/freepops/0.2.9/ |
gMote provides fast access to frequently-used actions via mouse gestures. By default, drawing a gesture is done by holding the right button down and dragging the mouse pointer across the screen. You may record a "W" shape to launch your favourite browser, a circle to enter your name, an "S" to invoke the Start Menu, a "P" to print etc.

ADRC Data Recovery Tools contains a collection of data recovery tools that supports a wide variety drives and file systems. It enables you to undelete files, create a disk image for backup, restore a backup image, copy files from hard disk with bad sectors, clone a disk, backup/edit/restore your boot parameters etc. As with most tools of this nature, administrator privileges are required to use the tools.
Note: ADRC Data Recovery Tools has the annoying habit of opening its user guide on the web in the web browser on startup. This behaviour cannot be disabled. It is not as stealthy as phoning home without your knowledge, but can be irritating.

It doesn't produce a bit-stream copy (forensic safe). I restored a forensic safe image of a drive and then create an image with this software. I computed the hash values for the images, they don't match. I am albeit leary of this.

I think to produce a forensic copy, you will need to connect the drive to a write block device. You can not use software this way to produce a forensic image.

Note 2: apart from being irritating, it kinda defies the whole purpose of data recovery... |
BFilter is a filtering web proxy originally intended for removing banner ads only, but since then its capabilities have been greatly extended. It detects web ads "heuristically," or similar to modern anti-virus software, as opposed to using blacklists, resulting in much more consistent behavior.
Note: Configuring a portable browser to use BFilter works flawlessly as long as BFilter is running, though it is not recommended to do this with a browser on the host computer. Configuration instructions can be found here.

to find out if it worked, just disable it, and then goto whatsmy.net and see what your ip is, and then reactivate it, and then goback to whatsmy.net and see if your ip changed, if it did, it worked.

Banshee: by definition only a REMOTE proxy server would change your IP. |
