2 gifts from Abelsoft
« on: December 26, 2011, 12:06 PM »
Abelsoft is reaching user #1mio, and is giving two (cheap) shareware programs away for free:

1) FolderVisualizer : http://www.abelssoft...?fn=FolderVisualizer
2) FileWing Pro: http://www.abelssoft...millionencounter.php

http://www.abelssoft...foldervisualizer.php
http://www.abelssoft.net/filewing.php

Edited:
Turns out FolderVisualizer is donationware :-)

I thought I'd go check these out. Interesting tidbit: I clicked on the FileWing Pro link first which took me to a download page stating that 13,968 people were missing from reaching their first million users. I thought better of downloading the file blindly so went to their home page and read up on the app first. When I decided it might be useful I went back to the original page to download and was then informed 14,008 people were missing. Hmm...another visit just now informed me 14,036 people were missing. At this rate they'll never reach their million!  ;D

They continue to flee!  I just went to the home page and was told that "precisely 14.314 users are missing...."

Also, where did you find any information about the program, other than that it causes people to run in the opposite direction?  Or was that what you thought might be useful?  :)

I followed Curt's second link referencing FileWing:

http://www.abelssoft.net/filewing.php

Seems like a nicely featured file deletion and undeletion program.

Duh...it was right in front of my eyes.  Oh well....thanks muchly. 

I almost never find that I want to undelete a file that I've deleted.  I often want to recover stuff that I've written, but not in a file, usually in a forum or on a form.  That's why I'm so crazy about the Firefox add-on Lazarus.  But I think when it comes to files, my problem is just the opposite--I should get rid of more files than I do.  ;)

Funny that...I think I was the one way back when who recommended Lazarus to you.  :)

OMG, I didn't remember that!  Well, let me say very belatedly that I am VERY VERY grateful to you.  Lazarus is my most indispensable FF add-on.   :Thmbsup:
