Re: A Few Apps
1. Are you sure these are all portable? Have you tested them in any capacity? That's a lot of work for forum members to dig through and find out about.
2. From my quick scan of the info, Quick Copy 2 Printer is probably the biggest gem out of this. If it works, there's only one other out of date program that does something similar here on PFC: OX Copy Machine http://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=525
3. Text in a Zip doesn't seem very remarkable if it doesn't actually do text searches INSIDE files INSIDE the zip, although I can't seem to find a search program that indexes/searches zip files...

Re: A Few Apps
I was hoping that a moderator might make a contribution to this post. I certainly don't want to go through the lot but I like posts that give me the chance to look for "gems" so thanks to modussn.
By and large though, I think you can ignore ALL of the files. (pity)
Anyway, a few comments
1. Available Home Sites (just for reference):
a> Quick Shutdown (it's actually a Dimaware product called Shutdown!) has evolved on the Home Site ...
http://www.dimaware.com/shutdown/shutdown1home.html
but the versions there are probably not portable.
b> reminder is also from Dimaware but is no longer available there.
c> QuickBackgammon is from ... http://www.xs4all.nl/~gverkade/quickbg/.
Latest version is 3.0.5
d> RegShot Well known - enough said
e> QFSplitter v 1.3 is from ... http://www.akcansoft.com/?s=dosyalar
f> Remove v 1.2 is from ... http://www.mikasalonen.com/products.shtmlA later version (4.0) is available on the Home Site ; it is Shareware.
g> RegFix v 0.95 (02.04.99) is from http://www.elcomsoft.com/art.html
It has evolved into a Shareware product (Advanced Registry Tracer)
h> ResizeEnable v 1.4 is available on http://www.digitallis.co.uk/pc/ResizeEnable/index.html
i> bCheck's Res-O-Matic v 5.1 is available from http://www.bcheck.net/apps/reso.htm
j> Text File Cleaver can be found on http://www.bartdart.com/
Time Worked Calculator v 2.6 can be found on http://www.geocities.com/twakil/
The one provided fails!v 2.6 is OK
k> Random Password generator from Dirk Paehl on http://www.dpaehl.de/
I'm not sure if he now provides this program; I use his curl program daily!
l> Quote of the Day is on http://thunder.prohosting.com/~ladi/
m>Time Chimes v 2.00 is on http://www.nch.com.au/timechimes/
(a later version - might be Shareware)
n> TimWi's Emboss is on http://www.lionking.org/~timwi/progs.htm
o> 3D Calendar ... WebSite of J M Falcao
2. Avoid (??!!):
a> dll finder
dll finder was a well known source of Elite Spyz 4.0 and Windows Defender doesn't like it. I don't know if it's because it recognises the name or whether it does indeed detect bad code. Not for me to find out!!
b> Shorty
This program requires wscript.exe. It is not provided and although it can be found it is a known source of trouble.
Again - not for me.
c> RegMaid
... looks dangerous to me!
modussn quotes ...
d> sc-unimail
sc-unimail spams email recipients. Not for me
e> 9xConfig
Just look dodgy.
3. Not working:
A large number didn't work in Vista. My guess is that they wouldn't work in XP.
eg ... Thinking mans thesaurus, arachnid, quod etc etc
talksender requires non-existent website
3a Require Run-times:
Several need run-time files. I wish these had been included.
Frankly, I think modussn should have checked the programs to see that they ran and included run-times when appropriate.
4. Duplicates:
Registry Saver 1.2 & Registry Saver 2.0
RegShot
ASCII Magic
AVI to MPEG1 2
Alarm_8.0Beta2
5. "Gems"
None really !!
RegFix looks interesting insofar as it has evolved to Advanced Registry Tracer. It may be worth a closer look.
TalkAny(TalkIt) looks fun and professional (Microsoft release) but doesn't work in Vista even in compatibility
mode. No sound! Does anyone know why - I'd quite like to see this in action.
By and large though, I think you can ignore ALL of the files. (pity)
Anyway, a few comments
1. Available Home Sites (just for reference):
a> Quick Shutdown (it's actually a Dimaware product called Shutdown!) has evolved on the Home Site ...
http://www.dimaware.com/shutdown/shutdown1home.html
but the versions there are probably not portable.
b> reminder is also from Dimaware but is no longer available there.
c> QuickBackgammon is from ... http://www.xs4all.nl/~gverkade/quickbg/.
Latest version is 3.0.5
d> RegShot Well known - enough said
e> QFSplitter v 1.3 is from ... http://www.akcansoft.com/?s=dosyalar
f> Remove v 1.2 is from ... http://www.mikasalonen.com/products.shtmlA later version (4.0) is available on the Home Site ; it is Shareware.
g> RegFix v 0.95 (02.04.99) is from http://www.elcomsoft.com/art.html
It has evolved into a Shareware product (Advanced Registry Tracer)
h> ResizeEnable v 1.4 is available on http://www.digitallis.co.uk/pc/ResizeEnable/index.html
i> bCheck's Res-O-Matic v 5.1 is available from http://www.bcheck.net/apps/reso.htm
j> Text File Cleaver can be found on http://www.bartdart.com/
Time Worked Calculator v 2.6 can be found on http://www.geocities.com/twakil/
The one provided fails!v 2.6 is OK
k> Random Password generator from Dirk Paehl on http://www.dpaehl.de/
I'm not sure if he now provides this program; I use his curl program daily!
l> Quote of the Day is on http://thunder.prohosting.com/~ladi/
m>Time Chimes v 2.00 is on http://www.nch.com.au/timechimes/
(a later version - might be Shareware)
n> TimWi's Emboss is on http://www.lionking.org/~timwi/progs.htm
o> 3D Calendar ... WebSite of J M Falcao
2. Avoid (??!!):
a> dll finder
dll finder was a well known source of Elite Spyz 4.0 and Windows Defender doesn't like it. I don't know if it's because it recognises the name or whether it does indeed detect bad code. Not for me to find out!!
b> Shorty
This program requires wscript.exe. It is not provided and although it can be found it is a known source of trouble.
Again - not for me.
c> RegMaid
... looks dangerous to me!
modussn quotes ...
Actually it deletes ALL empty Registry keysThe RegMaid utility is designed to clean up invalid registry entries that are caused by deleting OLE projects that are created with Visual C++ and Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC).
d> sc-unimail
sc-unimail spams email recipients. Not for me
e> 9xConfig
Just look dodgy.
3. Not working:
A large number didn't work in Vista. My guess is that they wouldn't work in XP.
eg ... Thinking mans thesaurus, arachnid, quod etc etc
talksender requires non-existent website
3a Require Run-times:
Several need run-time files. I wish these had been included.
Frankly, I think modussn should have checked the programs to see that they ran and included run-times when appropriate.
4. Duplicates:
Registry Saver 1.2 & Registry Saver 2.0
RegShot
ASCII Magic
AVI to MPEG1 2
Alarm_8.0Beta2
5. "Gems"

Re: A Few Apps
Just a few comments ...
1. dll finder
As I impled, Defender didn't like the name. Still I won't take chances on these sort of apps. Others might.
2. The fact that all the programs ran on modussin's sytem is a little surprising. Just one example ...Shorty really does need wscript.exe. Life's too short to explore the reasons for his success.
3. Runtime files
modussin states
I know that such files can be easily downloaded but it's all a pain.
My guess is that modussin has these files in the SYSTEM folder. That is certainly one approach but you're no longer aware of dependencies.
I have a similar problem with HLP files. They can't be read in Vista. I elected to download the requisite Microsoft file into the Windows folder.
4. Portability
webfork asked the very pertinent question .. Are you sure these are all portable?
I neglected to offer any opinions earlier. Let me say that I have not ReShotted any of them through lack of time and interest but whilst I suspect that few if any write to the Registry, a significant number do in fact write files (INI usually) to the Windows directory. So there is definitely a portability issue.
To take just one example ...
talksender requires a non-existent website to function; it writes a load of crap to the Windows directory and creates a desktop shortcut.
I don't understand how mondussin can get this to function at all let alone as a portable!
Finally, although I have raised some criticisms, I like these posts. Serendipity is a wonderful thing!

TaskbarEx
So what is this application all about? It actually serves several different purposes and the first one that I would like to mention is pictured to the right. I have my Windows Taskbar lined up along the right-side of my monitor so the orientation might look a little weird, but as you can see it will show you a thumbnail preview of the window as you hover over it. Sometimes it doesn’t have a preview available and I haven’t quite figured out when it does/doesn’t, but don’t worry because that is not what you’re supposed to be in awe at.
The main feature that I would like to point out is having the ability to drag items off of your Taskbar onto your Desktop. That’s right, you can easily reduce the clutter of having a huge list of open Windows by putting some of them in other locations on the screen

Rogue detection too
Rogue DHCP servers are those DHCP servers that are misconfigured or unauthorized unknowingly or those that are configured with a malicious intent for network attacks. Either be the case the impact on clients that are serviced by the rogue DHCP servers are critical. That is the clients would experience network access problems due to rogue DHCP server leasing incorrect IP addresses & incorrect options to the client. Security threats are caused when malicious user with rogue DHCP server can spread bad network parameters and thereby sniff the traffic sent by the clients. There are also certain Trojans like DNS-changing that uses a compromised machine in the network to pollute the network by installing rogue DHCP servers on the machine.
Rogue detection tool is a GUI tool that checks if there are any rogue DHCP servers in the local subnet.

RootRepeal
is a new rootkit detector currently in public beta. It is designed with the following goals in mind:
1. Easy to use - a user with little to no computer experience should be able to use it.
2. Powerful - it should be able to detect all publicly available rootkits.
3. Stable - it should work on as many different system configurations as possible, and, in the event of an incompatibility, not crash the host computer.
4. Safe - it will not use any rootkit-like techniques (hooking, etc.) to protect itself.
Currently, RootRepeal includes the following features:
1. Driver Scan - scans the system for kernel-mode drivers. Displays all drivers currently loaded, and shows if a driver has been hidden, and whether the driver's file is visible on-disk.
2. Files Scan - scans any fixed drive on the system for hidden, locked or falsified* files.
3. Processes Scan - scans the system for processes. Displays all processes currently running, and shows if a processes is hidden or locked.
4. SSDT Scan - shows whether any of the functions in the System Service Descriptor Table (SSDT) are hooked.
5. Stealth Objects Scan - attempts to determine if any rootkits are active by looking for typical symptoms.
6. Hidden Services Scan - scans for hidden system services.
7. Shadow SSDT Scan - counterpart to the SSDT Scan, but deals mostly with graphics and window-related functions.

Re: A Few Apps
I really wish a moderator would take a look at these posts.
I'm in two minds about them.
1. Although the early posts were not particularly good, recent posts have contained some gems (thankyou mondussn!)
2. Frankly though they haven't been researched enough.
To take a couple of examples:
RegClean was a Microsoft product; it's no longer supported and for XP users it will in some circumstances screw up your software.
ScanPro requires Excel - so not portable in a PFC sense.
Several other posted apps require Java or .NET Framework.
At the risk of sounding patronising I wish mondussn would go for quality rather than quantity!
