Submit portable freeware that you find here. It helps if you include information like description, extraction instruction, Unicode support, whether it writes to the registry, and so on.

Clickoff

#1 Post by the accountant »

ClickOff



ClickOff has been written out of a personal need - like most programs here. Questions like "are your sure you want to exit the program?" made me go insane after having seen them a dozen of times. I found a program called "BuzOff" on a computer magazine CD-ROM which took care of this situation by simply clicking a button to close the window but it also displayed nag-screens which annoyed me as well. Being a programmer I just thought "you can do that yourself" and I started working on ClickOff. I started looking for functions that windows provided for clicking on buttons without actually moving the mouse and I was successful. Meanwhile ClickOff has been improved through bug reports and suggestions of new features that you sent me. ClickOff is supposed to be the swiss knife for window handling, not just a simple popup blocker. Just check the list of features:

Features:


Automatically clicks button on error messages that come up all the time.
Fills in text
Closes browser popups
Minimizes or maximizes windows
Delay times can be set to allow user intervention
Single entries can be disabled temporarily
False clicks are avoided by taking the message text into the proccess of detecting.
To close windows that contain certain words, wildcards can be used
The scanning speed can be set
Can be disabled for a short period or permanently without having to be exited.
Has very low system resource needs, takes about 1 sec. to load and doesn't slow down the system while running.
Simple usage through hotkey support
Has language file support

I havnt tested if this is portable.
Install as per normal app. Copy files from program directory and
clickoff.cfg and clickoff.lst from roaming profile into a new folder. Remove lang files and uninstall files. Uninstall application with Revo.

Another similar app is splashkiler

This seems like a good idea, but unfortunately I can't get it to do what I want on many occasions. That means I'm stuck with the old PTFB 1.6.0.4. (old but good). :o
