    My project, A-Z Freeware Launcher, finally released

    in The Lounge

    Posted

    Well, I finally completed my project - A-Z Freeware Launcher. Naturally this version is not written in stone and can never be changed, so if anyone who decides to take it for a run have any suggestions for improvement, then please let me know. Any comments you may have (positive or negative) will be greatly appreciated. Your positive comments will make me feel good that I have created something useful and your negative comments will help me improve the product in future versions.

     

    It should be noted that this version includes detailed text to help the less experienced user. The text guides the user as to what I consider to be useful practices and also provides information on each application that A-Z Freeware Launcher supplies links to. In the near future I will issue a Pro version which will be the exact same program but without a lot of the text. In other words, some pages will be tidier due to not displaying text.

     

    For anyone who is interested in more information or to download, please click the following URL: http://cash2u2.com/page3.html

     

    I sincerely hope that some of you may find my program useful.

    Styrofoam Dome Houses

    Posted

    I wonder how long these last... also what about air conditioning since those seem to be out in the middle of the desert.

    Currently the houses are manufactured in South Korea but apparently the company plans to have distributors in every country around the world. I think they probably mean many countries, not every country. According to the video, the styrofoam in itself provides excellent insulation.

    Need a good name for my program

    Like I have stated before, you guys & gals are very clever on this forum so I figured that I would ask your opinion on a suitable name for a program that I created. If you can't think of a good name, don't worry, you are not alone :)

     

    The program provides the user with a GUI for launching various freeware programs. I will have two versions of the program - one version will include offline information on each program as well as other guidelines for users who are not experienced with computer tuneup and security procedures. The other version will be the "Pro" version which will not include offline info on each program and not include any guidelines (i.e. a lot of text will be eliminated).

     

    My program can launch the following programs:

    Ad-Aware

    Ashampoo

    AutoRuns

    Avast AntiVirus

    CCleaner

    Defraggler

    Erunt

    Eusing Registry Cleaner

    JkDefrag

    Macrium Reflect

    Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

    MyUninstaller

    NTRegOpt

    PageDefrag

    Process Explorer

    Revo Uninstaller

    Secunia PSI

    SpyBlaster

    SUPERAntiSpyware

    ThreatFire

    WhatsRunning

    WinPatrol

    ZoneAlarm

    ZSoft Uninstaller

    help me define application, tool and utility

    in The Lounge

    Posted

    I looked online for definitions of application, tool and utility but still cannot answer for certain what virus protection programs and anti-malware/spyware programs are called (I think they would be called utilities, but not sure). I think Registry cleaning, optimization programs would be called tools, am I right? Also, an application is basically any program, is that correct?

    Secunia Personal Software Inspector

    I came across this program yesterday and it seems quite useful. It found an old QuickTime folder that Search did not find back when I deleted all the iTunes crap from my PC. Also, it found that my Microsoft Word 2000 was insecure and needed a patch which Secunia supplied a direct link to. I had 4 other programs that needed updates. You may want to check it out. Note: you have the option of downloading the program or scanning online.

     

    For those interested: http://secunia.com/vulnerability_scanning/personal/

    Secunia PSI is a security tool designed with the sole purpose of helping you secure your computer from software vulnerabilities.

    The program rates software in three categories: Insecure, End-of-Life, and Patched. For each item it finds issue with, you'll get the file's directory, version, and known issues. When available, it also has a direct link to the publisher's site to get the latest version of a program. The program also has a very useful Toolbox that gives you quick access to Add/Remove Programs, the listed software's folder, online references, and more.

    For those who do not know what a software vulnerability is:

    A software vulnerability is basically a programming error/flaw in a software application, that can be used by a hacker to perform actions, which have a security impact on your computer.

    If you check it out, let me know what you think.

    I think because for quite a few people logging into this forum has to be done each time. I am one of them.

     

    I have tried everything I know and still have to sign in.

     

    It's the only forum I have to do this with

    I used to have the same problem hazelnut, but I found a way around this login problem. Just chose a forum, in my case I chose "Lounge"and save page as a bookmark (as a bookmark in my case because I use Firefox). Now every time click on the bookmark it takes me directly to the Lounge and I am logged in. Try it.

    A Sad Day...

    I don't know you Lulu but I feel your pain and I am so sorry for your loss. The pain of losing someone very close to you, someone who lives in your heart, can be unbearable. As time goes by your pain settles and fond memories of that person will bring peace.

     

    My parents, both deceased now, had three sons and I was the youngest. Sadly, both my brothers are long gone. My oldest brother died in 1961 at the very young age of 27. He was a jet pilot with the Canadian Navy flying off the Bonaventure in Halifax and crashed his Banshee during a routine flight to burn off some fuel before he was to take part in an air show. My other brother died at the age of 44 in 1984 from spinal cancer. 1961 and 1984 were tough, tough years for me. I miss them to this day but have had many moments were I actually smile from some of the joyful memories.

     

    Again Lulu, my thoughts are with you.
