KatMouse...


KatMouse is cool, free mouse wheel enhancement for Windows that I've been using for several months now. Great tool!

The prime purpose of the KatMouse utility is to enhance the functionality of mice with a scroll wheel, offering 'universal' scrolling: moving the mouse wheel will scroll the window directly beneath the mouse cursor (not the one with the keyboard focus, which is default on Windows OSes). This is a major increase in the usefullness of the mouse wheel.

U.S. Flag screensaver - updated


It's been about 5 years since I updated this screensaver. I kept the old versions around, in-case someone still wants them. The new version (Version 3), supports any resolution and also supports dual monitors. Although, the newer version doesn't have quite the customized speed options as the old versions had.
Oh, and it's still FREE. Donations accepted... :)

Here's a similar animation of how it looks:

Sandboxie - have you heard of it? used it?




What is Sandboxie?
This is mostly for 'geeks' and 'power users'. If you're not very 'geeky', you probably won't be interested in Sandboxie. Sandboxie is a framework that runs your programs in an isolated space (a sandbox), keeping them from making permanent changes to other programs or files. This is an excellent solution to keeping your system safe if you install or test software regularly. This is also great for secure web browsing, enhanced privacy and keeping your Windows environment lean.

If you're a developer/programmer, Sandboxie allows you to run your program in a sandbox. No changes are made to your system - that are only made in the sandbox. When you're done, just delete the sandbox. That's it. Your system never knew it existed. All trace gone.

If you're concerned about security and privacy, and you're a little 'geeky', you may find this to be a great, must-have tool.

ksTransLog screen saver - new!



Just for the geeks and SysAdmin's out there, I've developed a simple screen saver that displays your preferred log file (ie: system log file, windowsupdate log, etc) and displays it as scrolling text. The most recent log entries are shown at the top of the screen, while the others scroll. You can also include an optional background image, which the log text scrolls over. It's donationware - donations and suggestions welcomed.
