A few of my favorites freeware programs.(All work on my W98SE);

Sorry, the moderator won't allow me to put the URL's here (keeps blocking me with a message about "preventing advertisers") so just add the three w's to the part-links I've added.

Flashnote:- resides in the systray (tiny footprint). Click on it or type Alt+s and instantly you have a notepad-like page (any colour background and text). Auto saves everything. Faster than launching notepad, sticky notes etc. Excellent for copy/paste, quick notes, etc. Very fast on slow systems flashnote.softvoile.com/

Filemap :- Keep control over the growing number of phantom files that mysteriously appear on your system for no explained reason ... This is a valuable program which quickly indicates any changes to your root (C:\) Directory, Windows and System Directories each time the computer is booted. dogkennels.net/filemap/

TaskZip:- An oldie but goldie . At scheduled times Taskzip backs up all your critical settings and folders (zipped) to anywhere you specify. Mine backs up: My Documents folder, Word's Normal.dot, My Outlook Express Folders, Registry, Browser settings, Start Menu, OE Address Book, My Favorites Folder, All system Files etc, etc. etc. Simple to use. pb-sys.com/

If you had been here for any length of time, (1 post is not that long), you'd see that we have lots of problems with drive by SPAMMERs, that's the reason for the restrictions on new members. Be patient, it doesn't last long.

Makes sense. Thanks

... and, while I'm here, if anyone can recommend a freeware Ebook maker that will accept graphics and tables, please let me know.

Here's a great program I've been using called SmartClose. It is a handy tool that allows you to close all currently running programs a task often required during software installations to minimize conflicts or during defrag operations. Visit: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/smartclose.html

I read through the whole thread and didn't see this program so I thought I would share it. It's called SlickRun and can be found at http://bayden.com/SlickRun/

i've been using this program for about 8 years now and absolutely couldn't live without it. if you use the Run option in windows alot then this is the program for you. you can set up shortcuts to all your fav. programs/directories/websites etc. it has a little notepad type thing attached as well.

w/out a doubt the best freeware program i've ever used...or well most usefull i suppose :-D

Before a recent system crash I had a neat program that optimized the start up time. I thought I found it here but have read this forum for about 40 minutes with no luck. Anyone know of this or a similar freeware program?

Thanks in advance

Are you referring to Microsoft's Bootvis tool ? The one they've (for some inexplicable reasons) stopped keeping on their site ?

Anyway, it's a great little tool to optimise and speed up starts.

A Google search will turn up several sites where this is still available. Majorgeeks is one, as far as I remember.

I'm going to give this a try. Thanks,
Craig

You're welcome. This is #2 on my list, right behind irfanview.
The only problem I have with it - it gets confused if you Auto Hide the task bar.

Sometimes it drops out after a system hiccup. Just go to all Programs and restart it.

Does anyone know how the clock does on system resources? I'll give it a go when I get home.
