http://didierstevens.wordpress.com/pr [quote]USBVirusScan will launch any program you provide as a command line parameter each time a USB stick is inserted. I use it to start a full virus scan on the inserted USB drive, hence the name.[/quote]

trevorw said: I installed a 160Gb external USB drive and the software that came with it was crap.If only I checked on here first it would have saved me a couple of hours. This is a very good backup program with Incremental, timed backup and its also can create a .ZIP file with encrytion and can run in the background.  rating.

Control 2 pc's with one keyboard and mouse: http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/ Just uses IP; amazing bit of software if you run Development/Production boxes and want to avoid a KVM switch or multiple keyboards.

Ripitforme www.softpedia.com/progDownload/RipItMe-Download-44816.html#download_locations If you already use dvdshrink and dvddecrypter this tool is fantastic. It has not failed yet to allow me to backup anything i own. It uses Decrypter to take out all the nasty VOB files, can rip movie only if you wish etc. One click operation. Then automatically fires up shrink to compress the files.

Everybody gets so hung up on GIMP as a free alternative to photoshop, but GIMP has never been that user friendly. If you want a good Image Manipulation App on Windows you can;t go wrong with paint.net www.getpaint.net/index2.html Needs .net framework 2.0 but that's no biggie. Hope his helps someone.

Great piece of kit. Cleared 560MB from my system. Love this from the website: "CCleaner (formerly Crap Cleaner)"

Haven't been through so apps if repost - www.tucows.comwww.download.comand a nice little ip scanner - angry ip scanner from http://www.angryziber.com/ipscan/although Norton says it's a problem - never had problems enter in ip addresses and will scan your PC to see which addresses are used by etc modem. Possibly others as good, found this one simple. Also another site --usefull for drivers - www.driverguide.net --free registration needed.
