- Active Desktop 1.043, No More Desktop — Do you really love that boring Windows «desktop» concept? I personally don?t. Even if I could believe there were desktops in size of a stool, I still wouldn?t believe that a handful of icons are the only things I could place on my desktop. I want some more of dynamics, I want some more of information, and I want some more of beauty, after all! If you feel yourself the same way…
- StarSkin, Get Their Best from Themes — Windows Themes, introduced by Windows XP, are really a cool thing. The bound of interface changeability was nearly completely broken. Nearly: StarSkin does one more step to the boundless interface theming. First of all, it allows changing appearance — of either the entire Windows or of individual elements — more comfortably, then Windows itself does. One or two clicks — and your environment is altered…
- ProSaver Screensaver Manager 1.0.1, Screensavers as Art — Years ago, in the times of single-task OSes and old monitors, the «screen-saver» concept was introduced as a must (because if the same picture remained on the old screen for too long, the picture would physically damage the screen and create «burnt-out pixels» on it.) Years have passed, and modern monitors have almost no need for «saving the screen». Nevertheless, screensavers are still alive and are becoming some kind…
- Download Accelerator Plus 8.5, Just Does Faster — Downloading files you’ve found online too often becomes a pain if a file is large (in some cases, it can become a pain for EVERY file). Downloading takes too much time. Downloading fails by timeouts and disconnections, and you stay with a useless file part. In most cases, you can’t even figure out for sure whether the file has been downloaded completely! Want to solve it? Asking for my advice? Here…
- Aml Maple 1.92, Dancing In Languages — The world is completely multi-cultural now, it’s just a fact. But this fact is a pain for those who have a non-English alphabet (like Cyrillic or Greek), because they should use several keyboard layouts (native for conversations and English for URLs, technical information etc.). These people should not only switch layout every several minutes, but also they should always remember their «current» layout inside every individual application…
- Download Studio 4.0, A File Grabbing Combine — The good old times, when most of us had slow, unreliable Internet connections, were the times of the rise of «file downloaders». The first ones of them were naive, and all they could do was «download this file, in spite of disconnects and low download speed». But the software kept undergoing the development, became smarter and more automated, and mature downloaders suddenly became really useful programs EVEN in the times…
- Enterra Download Manager — Those of us who regularly download large amounts of data from the web, and especially those who pay for their traffic, know well that a download manager is a must have if you don’t want to lose money, time and nerves. Unfortunately, the standard managers integrated in most popular browsers leave much to be desired and lose a lot to commercial applications. If you need a functional download manager that would…
- YouTube Music Downloader - a virtually endless supply of fresh music videos — A great number of modern devices, such as cell phones, portable consoles and MP3 players support video playback these days. However, we don’t always have time to grab videos from TV, compress them and convert into the necessary format. At the same time, millions of videos are available for free on Youtube and it would be imprudent not to use such an inexhaustible source of music. Ironically, Youtube uses its own…
- AutoWallpaper - a kaleidoscope of wallpapers with stunning visual effects — If you are a proud owner of a shop or a multi-monitor system, you may eventually want to use your monitors to decorate your display case or workplace. A single panoramic screensaver or synchronized switching of several wallpapers would be ideal for a vivid demonstration, but setting it up using standard OS means is quite problematic, if not impossible. If you would like to breathe new life…
