Here's another downloader you might like to try-4wd (February 12, 2008, 09:04 PM)
A bonus is it will read from a file of URLs.
wget --input-file=<file>
Only thing is I believe you'll need to input the proxy manually - could be a problem if you don't know the authentication.-4wd (February 08, 2008, 07:15 PM)
Hmm i fell for the blurb that it did support proxies, somewhere in the config files.-iphigenie (February 08, 2008, 06:20 AM)
wget is always a good choice
and may still have the same problem with permissions.i find this http://www.webxpace....et/software/#Downldr - i havent tried it much and most of it is controlled via a text config, but it seems to be an "unpack and run straight" type of tool
I suppose I'll have not choice but to check it out! Thanks for the link, especially for the GUI shells.I mean usually I think to remember a password just after i entered it as mentally I remember the details when I see the website (visually). So I've just logged in and then want to save the passwords to the manager.-justice (January 30, 2008, 09:37 AM)
What I disliked about Keepass and all other password managers is that you login to a website and then have to type in the login again in the password manager to save it.-justice (January 30, 2008, 04:29 AM)
Also the hassle of having to open the password manager, find the password and then copy/paste it or drag/drop it in the form is really tiresome.

Trick about passphrases is that you need to be able to memorize them, though, otherwise you end up writing them down on a piece of paper or whatever-f0dder (January 20, 2008, 01:50 PM)
do you have any recommendations for the password?-tomos (January 20, 2008, 12:06 PM)
A useful tool for creating passwords that nobody can guess. Use a mixture of upper/lowercase letters, numbers and a selection of user defined special characters. Generate up to 1000 passwords at a time and save them to a file.
I'm still trying to decide between it and KeyNote; they both do very similar things. I tried Stickies for a while, but it was faintly annoying, though I don't remember why now.-Mandork (January 20, 2008, 10:16 AM)
MailWasher Pro version 6.0 has been released. And as promised, this is a completely
free upgrade.
We recommend you upgrade to this version as soon as possible to take
advantage of the new features. Also see below about the 2-for-1 deal
on MailWasher Pro this week only.
New Features
============
Easier to use
-------------
Many of you didn't know how to train MailWasher to block spam, so this has
been made easier with the Action column. The Action column lets you specify
whether an email is 'GOOD' or 'SPAM' and from this, MailWasher will quickly
and automatically learn which of your email is spam and which is good,
saving you time.
All the settings for options, email accounts and spam tools are now able to
be changed in one area. All accessible via the 'Settings' button on the front
of MailWasher.
Additionally, there are many small tweaks to improve your experience of using
MailWasher Pro.
Recycle bin
-----------
Many of you never knew you could rescue accidentally deleted email. So a
button called the 'Recycle Bin' has been placed on the front of MailWasher
and this allows you to restore any email you have lost.
A new look
----------
MailWasher is now a bit brighter and shinier. It was looking a bit scruffy,
so hopefully you like the subtle changes.
Vista Compatible
----------------
Yes, this version is fully compatible with Windows Vista. Finally.
Updated spam algorithms
-----------------------
We've updated the spam algorithms so you should see a big difference in the
spam catching ability of MailWasher if you're using FirstAlert.
2-for-1 deal (This week only!)
------------------------------
If you buy MailWasher Pro this week, you'll get an additional copy for free.
Visit http://firetrust.com...her-pro/promo/HJY945
to get this special offer.
Of course, feel free to pass this special offer on to your friends.

Fast File Renamer: Rename multiple files at the click of a button!
Current version: 1.0, February 05, 2007
Fast File Renamer is a freeware program which can help you with the tedious task of renaming large numbers of files. The program can be used by anyone who needs to keep large collections of files organized (such as mp3 files, image and graphics files, web-site-related files, system files).
Fast File Renamer also has a 'simulate' function where you can preview the effects of any changes before applying them and it supports the use of the '*' wildcard character (inside the pattern which is to be deleted or replaced).
Mainly for simplicity and ease of use by someone who's more of a mouse person than a keyboard person.-Hefty Hippie (January 11, 2008, 04:02 AM)

The ReligionFacts Big Religion Chart is an attempt to summarize all the complexities of religions and belief systems into tiny little boxes on a single, quick-reference comparison chart. Yes, this is impossible. As we always warn with our comparison charts, this is no substitute for reading about religions in greater detail, talking with religious adherents, etc. But this religon comparison chart can (hopefully) be a useful and accessible way to "get the gist" of some unfamiliar groups and compare basic beliefs and practices of the world's religions and belief systems.
