    Comodo BackUp 1.0.4.337

    I like it. I was searching a freeware backup program, which could be able to full backup a folder of files into an external hard disk and to backup/synchronize specific files and settings from various applications into one fodler, with the same sub-folders, in order to be able to restore them in the future. This one has all these options and it is freeware. Nice job Comodo :]

    Very good. It succeeded various leaking tests that I've used on it.
    A little bit difficult to edit its settings, but much safer than other freeware firewalls.


    Eusing Free Registry Cleaner 1.1

    It always keeps backups of the registry, never made my system to hang and it cleans a lot of useless registry issues. I have tried many registry cleaners and this one is to stay on my PC.

    In combination with a good file cleaner (eg. EasyCleaner, which also provides registry cleaning) and with a registry defragment (eg. Free Registry Defrag), the registry will always be in a very good shape.

    nice and free. the registration provides a little bit more features, like keyboard logging etc. This version though is outdated.
    To download the latest, go to:

    Subtitle Workshop 2.51

    Just great. Very easy GUI, lots of features, subtitle editing on the fly, multilanguage support and more.

    I write this though, in order to note something. There are several cases that the program crashes if it runs with DirectVobSub, so in order to run properly, DirectVobSub needs to be temporarilly disabled.

    So, if you start the program and it crashes immediately, check the following:

    - When you start the Subtitle Workshop and you see a green arrow on the task-bar next to the clock, the DirectVobSub is enabled.

    - Go to the installed directory of DirectVobSub and edit the configuration
    (eg. C:\Program Files\VobSub\DirectVobSub Configure
    or
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\rundll32.exe dvobsub.ax,Configure
    or
    from the start menu go to: Programs - K-Lite Codec Pack - Configuration - DirectVobSub
    (for those who have K-Lite Mega Codec Pack installed)

    - Open the configuration and select the "General" tab. The last option is entitled as 'Loading'. Select from the drop-down list "Do not load" and press OK. Now you can open Subtitle Workshop normally.

    - Once you finished, go to the DirectVobSub Configuration again and re-enable the Loading from the list...


    DVDFab Decrypter 2.9.7.9

    Some new DVD movies I wanted to backup, they were having various protections that neither with DVD Shrink, DVD Decrypter or by any other help sked from forums could bypass them.

    With that program, the the entire movie was copied in my HDisk and I managed to read it from there with DVD Shrink normally. The only bad thing was the large capacity it required for the movie processing (original DVD and the backed up DVD).

    Supports many languages, it is free, fast and very user friendly.

    Excellent free firewall. Along with a good free antivirus (like Avast Home Ed.) is the perfect combination for internet security. It has saved my PC many times. Nice job..

    Great Program but it is Demo, not freeware. The freeware is the Quick 'n Easy FTP Server Lite, with more limited functions, but still very good.
