- Spices.Net Suite: All about .Net Visual Studio Can't Do — Spices.Net Suite is a collection of utilities, which brings all the strength the .Net platform *potentially* has right in a developer’s hands. Unfortunately, the functionality of the tools created by Microsoft for their own platform is always much poorer than what it could be, and Spices.Net is addressed to fix this drawback. Once installed, Spaces.Net Suite will provide you with pretty and usable environment, completely…
- Editor.NET 1.42, Edit Like Professional — One of the most common, «recursive» tasks for any programmer is a hand-made code editor. Sometimes, it is only a challenge for training skills and playing with components. Sometimes, it is an experimental or hobbyish attempt to Do Better (create an editor with features nobody else has invented). And in many cases self-made code editor is business necessity: when you really invent something great for existing…
- 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…
- Aurora Web Editor 2.2, Site Editor with a Human Face — Nowadays, the term «website» is really diffused. Google «is a website»? Amazon «is a website»? A personal homepage of an Oxford professor or New-York worker «is a website»? Then, what does it mean «to create a web-site»? OK, let’s turn back from the philosophy to the practice. Suppose, you want to have a simple, few-page website…
- XP Tools 7.76, Rule Over Your Windows! — When you’re trying to enchance and control your Windows, you have many options and utilities. The two most common extremes are «one utility for each single function» and «a suite for all service tasks». XP Tools software follows the second approach, and I should say it does the best in the logical organization and effective control. Let’s take a short guide through XP Tools and its usage patterns.

- Mines XP — There are games that were once created to stay for long. They do not demonstrate mind-numbing graphics, feature amazing soundtracks and cutting-edge in-game technologies that modern entertainment titles have to offer. On the contrary, they are simple, compact, have a rather straightforward «storyline» and are primarily intended for testing your skills and entertaining you during short breaks in your mundane activities. These are casual games, which have…
- 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…
- Easy Net Switch – a dream come true for real net-hoppers — If all networks were absolutely the same, they would’ve called it network utopia. No network-specific IP addresses, passwords, DNS servers, drive mappings, proxy and gateway addresses — all these things that may take hours to configure, especially when there is not system administrator around. Unfortunately, networks are all different and active users that commute between offices, building, departments, home and corporate networks know very well…
- Vista Style Elements Icon Set, Do You Have a Dream? — As a developer, don’t you have a dream that the day will come when users will be able to comprehend the logics of your programs without your assistance, and your technical support service will finally take a break from those round-the-day silly questions like «How do I go around this menu?» or «What is that button for?» or «What do I do next?» Who knows when that GUI…
