But for the discerning of the written media, most of us still use only one known option: CD markers and hand-written labels.

- NAntBuilder 1.1, Handy Cover for Handy Tool — The make tool was cool. But this «was» is twenty years old. Today’s programmers don’t cherish the old make not because they are dumb, but because they live in the new time with a new mind and new habits. Today’s build and automation tools are XML-based, because XML is universal. .Net environments and .Net programmers are in love with free and open-source NAnt tool.

- Total Privacy, Covering the Computer's Hill of Achilles — What are the first things that get into your mind when you hear words like «privacy» or «security»? Is that something like «password protection», «data encryption» and other hard-to-comprehend stuff? Well, how about getting down to earth and looking right under your nose. Things you don’t care about, such as cookies, browser cache, temporary and log files in a spiteful person’s hand can cause damage…
- Safe File Shredder and Mover, Erasing Traces — Did you know that the deletion of a file didn’t actually erase it, and, instead, the deleted file was just moved to a garbage folder? Did you know also that even when the garbage folder — known in Windows as «Recycle Bin» — was «cleared», the «deleted» file still didn’t physically disappear from the disk? Did you know that even when you deleted a file bypassing Recycle Bin…
- Easy Duplicate File Finder – highly efficient duplicate files removal — The good thing about today’s hard drives is their size. Having up to a terabyte of free disk space silently spinning in your PC case makes you forget about saving space and paying attention to copies of folder and files scattered across the drive. However, the abundance of copies may become quite confusing, especially if you try to keep your archive of program distributives more or less up to date. Finding…
- CD-Cover Editor 3.0 - the simplest way of adding style to your CD or DVD collection — If you start burning at least several disks each month, you will enter the next year with an impressive stack of CD’s and DVD’s containing music, movies, backups and other data.

If you are seeking a way to create nice-looking CD and DVD…
- Advanced Tracks Cleaner – an indispensible tool for any privacy-conscious user — Whenever you perform an action on your computer — open a file, install a program, visit a webpage — your operating system records it. This logging is done for different purposes, but the most important consequence of this process is that your activities may be recreated quite accurately — even if you think you have been very discreet.

- File Security Manager - full control over file and folder access permissions (even in Windows XP Home) — Being an overall excellent operating system, Windows XP does have some versions that limit user’s control capabilities to a bare minimum. For instance, Windows XP Home offers a great set of multimedia and general features, but lacks the degree of flexibility that many advanced users would definitely appreciate. For instance, the Home version will not allow you to set file and folder access right, which is a common method…
- Duplicate File Finder .NET - a jolt of fresh air for a clogged hard drive — Since the majority of today’s hard drives are measured in hundreds of gigabytes or even in terabytes, we rarely pay attention to how we keep our data organized, if at all.
