  1. Review - PStart

    2.10 (Jun 1, 2007)

    NO WAY! Finally, an update. Now everything's sortable, and several tiny bugs were fixed. No lie, one of my favorite little freeware programs! I use it on my flash drive to sort out all my other freeware tools that I absolutely need.

    Give it a try, it's great!

  2. Review - µTorrent for Windows

    1.7 Build 2151 Beta (May 28, 2007)

    Bigmama has written 5 reviews of uTorrent, so it's pretty obvious it's the developer of that other "professional" client.

    Most of his posts are just copies of his previous posts, with the addition of more rambling.

    Azureus is a 10mb download, and even bigger after the install. Plus, you would have to have a 25+mb Java platform installed, which is 45mb once installed.

    I am a huge fan of any software that is tiny, simple, and gets the job done. The latest version of uTorrent will always be on my flash drive, and Azureus will always be a piece of crap.

  3. Review - AOL Instant Messenger for Windows

    6.2.14.2 Beta (May 25, 2007)

    tenebrusmke79 - "I gave this version a five BEFORE even using this version to offset the negative reviews (which really aren't that relevant either)."

    Isn't it less relevant to give the software a rating before you use it just to offset everyone else's vote?

    I gave this version a one BEFORE even using this version to offset the positive reviews.

  4. Review - ConTEXT

    0.98.4 (Oct 27, 2006)

    It's been a year without an update, but this is still my favorite freeware Notepad replacement. I wish there was an easier way to completely replace Notepad with ConTEXT from within the program, but it's nothing a couple registry tweaks won't fix.

  5. Review - eXactMapper Lite

    1.2 (Apr 27, 2006)

    This is a sweet program if you want a site index, but it doesn't work very well if your site is in PHP. It also doesn't work if you use some soft of Javascript menu that doesn't use HREF tags between your site's pages. If your site does use HTML then it works great.

  6. Comment - The starting gun sounds for the .ASIA domain landrush

    Well duh, everyone wants to register http://www.euthan.asia/

    $90 is kinda steep though... :/

    Clever twist on words, yet can't spell "you're" correctly.

  8. Comment - Study: The Internet's spam problem is getting worse

    I didn't know BugMeNot had a temp email service... Hm. DodgeIt went down the crapper, I'll have to give BugMeNot a shot.

    There are thousands and thousands of servers up that allow you to bounce emails off from them. It makes them hard to trace, especially when the servers are located in other continents.

    I've used my email address for years, and I never got spam until last Christmas. Even then it was only a handful of spam a week, but I could pretty much pinpoint where and when my email address was added to someone's list. Beware when shopping at seemingly legit sites. Everyone's out to make a buck.

    Then the person with a list of active email addresses can sell the list to anyone who wants a list of validated active emails.

    Nothing a simple CAPTCHA can't fix.
