Attachment Options
is an add-in for Outlook 2000 SP3 or higher, Outlook 2002, and Outlook 2003
that provides a user interface for changing which attachment file types are
hidden by Outlook, and thus cannot be seen, saved or opened from Outlook.
If you want to receive .exe files from someone you trust, this is the way to
go. |

Buying Symantec's
Norton GoBack 3.0 was the best
investment I ever made. You can roll back your system to a healthy state
after a viral infection, system problem, or user error. I'm no longer
afraid of installing software downloaded from the Internet, because I always
know I can put things back the way they were.
You can retrieve deleted files files, restore a previous version of a
file, and recover files or a an entire hard drive. When developing software,
it's easy to GoBack to before things started going bad.
I will never own a PC without GoBack; at $39.95, neither should you |

Are you annoyed by
the continual assaults of spurious messages and confirmation prompts? Would
you like to get rid of dialog boxes such as these?
Buzof, by Basta Computing automatically answers, closes or minimizes
virtually any recurring window including messages, prompts, and dialog
boxes. You just teach Buzof how to click the button that you would normally
click to get rid of the annoying window.
This shareware program has a 30-day evaluation period. The price
of a single end-user license to is US$15.00. I purchased my license the
first day I tried it.

If you've ever sent e-mail without attaching the attachments,
Attach! from KMGI is for you.
This freeware add-in for Microsoft Outlook 2000, 2002, and 2003
automatically scans your outgoing email for 'trigger words' that you can
define yourself.
If an attachment is mentioned, but there are no attachments, you're given
the options to attach a single file, or to send the e-mail as is. |

If you use special characters not on your keyboard, such as ®, ¼, °,
è, or ñ, AllChars for Windows is for youl
This freeware add-in for Windows maps user defined key sequences
into special characters; e.g., <ctrl>,c,o for ®, <ctrl>,~,n for ñ. I
regret I hadn't found it sooner. |

This freeware add-in for Windows, by Alfred Bolliger, is activated
when you press the PrtSc Key. It allows you to capture the entire
screen or any portion of it.
You can then edit the screen capture, and save it in a number of graphic
