  • AVG Anti-Virus - If you are looking for a free and reliable anti-virus program, I would recommend AVG Anti-Virus by Grisoft. This company has a proven reputation of being stable, up to date, and thorough with it's' software. What I like most about their software is the fact that it does not drain system resources like other anti-virus programs and yet it is always running. Personally, I have never had a virus (that I know of), that AVG has not caught. AVG integrates into your email, has a scheduler for both running scans and up dating itself, and is small enough that it does not noticeable slows down your system. Best of all, its free. They do have a professional version which you can pay for; however for most, the free version is sufficient enough. (Added: 11-Nov-2004 Hits: 565)
  • AVG Anti-Virus - This is the web site for AVG Anti-Virus. This is a completely free anti-virus programme with no ads or anything. It also includes free lifetime updates. Some universities use it, Lander University here in SC uses it so it is legit. I use it in addition to other anti-virus software, it works great. (Added: 8-Dec-2002 Hits: 813)
  • Belarc - The Belarc Advisor builds a detailed profile of your installed software and hardware and displays the results in your Web browser. All of your PC profile information is kept private on your PC and is not sent to any web server. (Added: 30-Nov-2002 Hits: 581)
  • CCleaner - CCleaner is the number-one tool for cleaning your PC. It protects your privacy and makes your computer faster and more secure! CCleaner Free.Our standard version frees up space, clears your online tracks and helps you manage your machine so it runs faster. (Added: 24-Mar-2021 Hits: 116)
  • Darik's Boot and Nuke - Darik's Boot and Nuke ("DBAN") is a self-contained boot floppy that securely wipes the hard disks of most computers. Also available is an .iso file so that the wipe can be performed from a cd/dvd drive. DBAN will automatically and completely delete the contents of any hard disk that it can detect, which makes it an appropriate utility for bulk or emergency data destruction. DBAN is a means of ensuring due diligence in computer recycling, a way of preventing identity theft if you want to sell a computer, and a good way to totally clean a Microsoft Windows installation of viruses and spyware. DBAN prevents or thoroughly hinders all known techniques of hard disk forensic analysis. (Added: 27-Jun-2007 Hits: 319)

HouseCall is a demonstration of the power of Web-based technologies that Trend Micro is developing to make deployment and management of virus protection in corporate settings fast and easy.

  • Offline NT Password & Registry Editor - This is an advanced utility that should only be used by administrators that are comfortable editing the Windows Registry. The following description is taken from the writer's Web site:
    This is a utility to (re)set the password of any user that has a valid (local) account on your NT system, by modifying the encrypted password in the registries SAM file. You do not need to know the old password to set a new one. It works offline, that is, you have to shutdown your computer and boot off a floppydisk or CD. The bootdisk includes stuff to access NTFS partitions and scripts to glue the whole thing together. Works with syskey (no need to turn it off, but you can if you have lost the key) Will detect and offer to unlock locked or disabled out user accounts! It is also an almost fully functional registry editor!
