Akiratima's Personal Touch

Ok, the setup I have going on my computer is decent, but nothing special. I'm gonna tell you a few programs I use on a daily basis on here.

First is a program called Winplosion which is a pretty decent program that is good to use if you have a lot of windows open because a feature on it takes every window thats open and shrinks it to fit on the screen. Then you pick which screen you want and it maximises back up to the normal size thus transfering you to this document. Granted yo ucan do the same with alt+tab but if you don't wanna use the energy to touch the keyboard, this is a good tool. I rate it a 5/10

Another program I use is Netlimiter which is really good for controlling your bandwidth. I just wish that there was a way to cut the transfer speed completely rather than just lower it to 1k/sec. Still good, I'd say a 7/10.

I use 2 browsers, Firefox and Deepnet, we've talked about both.

Resource Hacker programs....yea, I know...but hey, somethings just require it. Such as my start button no longer saying start. Nor having the windows logo on it anymore. I'll post a progress that you use to change the start button in the next post I do.

I'm running Windows XP, but I'm thinking of putting together a pc just so I can put Linux on it and piss around.

Never underestimate the power of your Windows Explorer. Theres a reason it's there, it's good stuff, easy to get around, easily browsed.

Now for the News
Microsoft released patches for major security holes in their firewall.[Link]

Several network intrusion detectors are now avaliable for Linux [Link1] [Link2] [Link3] [Link4]

I think thats about it, remember, check back for my next post...hacking the windows start button for dummies.
