  • Suggested by Fluffy

FastStone Capture is a powerful, flexible and intuitive screen-capture utility. It allows you to capture anything on the screen including windows, objects, full screen, rectangle regions, freehand-selected regions and scrolling windows/web pages. It has innovative features such as a floating Capture Panel, hotkeys, resizing, cropping, text annotation, printing, e-mailing, screen magnifier and many more.

Reported to function in Windows 7 and in Linux under WINE.

Note: FastStone Capture went payware starting from v5.4 so I have made the last freeware version available (v5.3) for direct download as the license agreement does not prohibit redistribution.

@jimdorey: I'm a little confused why we had a listing that this works with Win10 -- it really doesn't. When this version of the program stopped being developed, Win7 wasn't even out yet. Anyway, I recommend trying another software package for that OS. I've updated the entry.

@jimdorey: v5.3 works fine on my win 10 x64 using a 1080p screen resolution. Maybe you're using a high DPI screen/4k monitor, and only the last version (8.4, payware, but worth every penny) works fine in that case.

It's probably just a false positive, but ClamAV detects Trojan.Nota in this. Couple of other AV scanners (not big names) detect Backdoor.Win32.Celine (.zip file the program comes in was run through both Jotti's and VirusTotal).

Andrew Lee on 2007-04-14 08:13

You are getting false positive because the EXE is UPX compressed. It is a common problem. Try "upx -d xtractor.exe", then scan again.

PDF2EXE v1.0.0

webfork on 24 Nov 2015
  • 1MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on
  • Suggested by Andrew Lee

PDF2EXE converts any PDF file to EXE, making PDF readable on any computer without PDF reading software. The conversion from PDF to EXE preserves the look and feel of the original document and includes optional compression. Note that PDF2EXE is based on Cool PDF Reader, which has attracted some comments disparaging the quality of its rendering engine. If you don't like Cool PDF Reader, you will probably want to give this a miss as well.

PDF2EXE also contains security features such as encryption of the shared PDF to help prevent modification, as well as disabling printing and image conversion.

Free PDF readers (Adobe's or otherwise) are so common and easy to obtain that I'm wondering how necessary it is to offer an alternative format, especially one that wouldn't work on Macs or Linux systems. If I knew for sure that my audience were all Windows users, I guess I might consider distributing .EXE files, but if it were up to me I'd prefer that everyone just had some kind of PDF reader.

WinSnap is a small utility for taking and editing screenshots. It can easily capture screenshots of non-rectangular windows with the background of your choice, automatically perform simple canvas transformations and coloring effects, add professional Photoshop-style shadows etc. Note that if you are running this on versions of Windows before XP, you will need to place GDIPLUS.DLL in the application folder.

Note: Starting from V2.x, WinSnap is no longer free for personal use. We are linking to the last freeware version available on an alternative site. If you have a more recent freeware version, please post in forums.

Duty and Beyond is an above-average adventure game about a man who will deliver a pizza at any cost. A nice twist in this game is that there's no need to backtrack to find items: they will appear in your inventory when you need them at the expense of your overall score.
