There are plenty of free CD/DVD burners for Windows, and to be honest we haven’t often been tempted to look beyond CDBurnerXP and InfraRecorder, which both seem to handle pretty much any tasks you can throw at them. The application can handle all of your basic tasks like burning data, audio, and video discs. It [...]
Freeware application AutoGK rips DVDs to hard drive-friendly DivX and Xvid formats for quick, easy, and high-quality backups. It does so by acting as an automating front-end to several other free ripping and encoding tools, which it automatically installs on your system.
Although I’ve never featured AutoGK, a lot of readers swear by it. If you [...]
Vidalia is a cross-platform GUI for the Tor network, which makes it very easy to anonymize your Mac’s TCP activity.

PreviewConfig is a utility that gives Vista users the power to add file type support to the Explorer preview pane, which can be activated via “Organize.” Though the preview pane can be an interesting and useful feature of the OS, it really lacks in file support.

The problem is that Vista “Auto-Detects” [...]

Windows XP users with a serious Mac crush have FlyakiteOSX to make their desktop resemble, if not work like, a Mac, but Vista users—even those upgraded to Service Pack 1—now have Vista OS X for a similar OS paint job.

Dziobas RAR Player is a media player with a couple of nice features, but one that stands out in particular: the ability to play an incomplete RAR file.

Microsoft is denying a recent report that suggests it deliberately included a technical loophole in Windows Vista that lets users install the OS without paying for the full priced version.

Those folks at PortableApps are getting faster and faster. Just a few hours after Firefox 3 beta 5 was released, the portable version was available for download. Actually, it might have been available immediately, but we didn’t think to look for it until a few hours had passed.
What exactly is a portable app? Well, in [...]
This free, Windows-only, open source application BtProx locks your Windows computer whenever your cell phone or other Bluetooth device is out of range.
