These mostly mention Pimmy, The Bat!, and Opera M2.I had recently noticed that SiteAdvisor has been aquired by McAfee. I was concerned they might drop the free version until I read this:

I noticed no promise to keep it free forever, but nobody can promise that.-clif_notes (April 23, 2006, 03:35 PM)
The basic version of our software is free of charge. In the future, we will offer paid versions with additional premium features.
My absolute favorite was QuickCalc, which was abandoned soon after it was released. QuickCalc calculated as you typed-zridling (April 13, 2006, 03:37 AM)

I'm keen to see the final output!! Is it something that will be developed into a working brief to be developed (here)???
Passwords on the move! [...] BUT, this way you won't have access to them when you aren't on your computer.
So, i think it misses a fSekrit + uploader kind of thing. There should be a way to upload all your passwords (or only some selected ones) to an internet server, in an encrypted way, but such that won't need any special program to access it, which means... fSekrit!!-jgpaiva (June 18, 2006, 06:28 PM)
I use keepass in conjunction with roboform, updating the other when I add a login to one. That way, I will always have two sources for stored passwords for redundancy.-Josh (July 03, 2006, 10:51 PM)

Event Manager (freeware) is a light weight reminder program. Program to help you remember your appointments. It supports many options for repeatable alarms and allows the user to specify a .wav file as audio notification. Event Manager is very simple to use unlike other bloat-ware reminders... just unzip and run. http://www.rotebetas...om/EventManager.html
This one has both free and (recently) shareware versions.
Kirby Alarm & Task Scheduler
http://www.kirbyfooty.com/
"Kirby Alarm is an alarm clock and task scheduler that will pop up a
note, or run a program, or play a sound, or send an email at user
defined intervals. Various options are available to set alarms (or
programs) to run every few minutes, hours, days, months, years, or the
last Friday in the month, or the last day in the month. Plus lots
more!! "
looking for a program that has an interface that will prevent me from being surprised by my entered tasks. For example if I have a dental appointment I obviously need to know in advance that I have to get myself to the dentist by a certain time. In my opinion the best interface would be one that shows the current day's tasks & maybe the tasks for the next 7 days with a "# days to go until dental appointment" style entry. What program is closest to this type of format?-skywalka (June 29, 2006, 11:17 PM)
A (portable?) programme that you can save your bookmarks to say with a universal hotkey, or from the context menu.
Then you dont have to be thinking, now where did i save that.-tomos link=topic=4164.msg29398#msg29398
Or maybe something that can import bookmarks from diff browsers, synch them, and export them or save them in format for import back to browser

Because some of us actually know what we're doing, and want to share with people who aren't able to afford internet, or just want to google something on their pocketpc as they're walking by.-gsull (June 26, 2006, 03:14 AM)

* Prints relevant text only, eliminating images
* Print only using the black cartridge (Excludes printers that use the #1 cartridge)
* Enables easy web photo printing using the included Lexmark Fast Pics software

When writing big scripts, say 40,000 words upwards, I'd recommend using WordStar. Version 4 is the best, imho. 5 and 6 are more trouble than they're worth, 2000 doesn't use the same Cntrl sequences, and WordStar for Windows is a version of Wordstar in name only.-SAE140 (June 10, 2006, 06:14 AM)
