SpeedFan 4.34

http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php

SpeedFan is a program that monitors voltages, fan speeds and
temperatures  in computers with
hardware monitor chips. SpeedFan can even access S.M.A.R.T. info for
those hard disks that
support this feature and show hard disk temperatures too, if
supported. SpeedFan supports SCSI
disks too. SpeedFan can even change the FSB on some hardware (but this
should be considered
a bonus feature). At the lowest level, SpeedFan is a hardware monitor
software that can access
digital temperature sensors, but its main feature is that it can
change fan speeds (depending on
the capabilities of your sensor chip and your hardware) according to
the temperatures inside your
pc, thus reducing noise. Several sensors, like Winbond’s and the
AS99127F support fan speed
changing, as well as others from Maxim, Myson, Analog Devices,
National Semiconductor and
ITE, but the hardware manufacturer must have connected the relevant
pins to some additional, yet
trivial, circuitry. This means that if you have, say, a Winbond
W83782D on a BP6 then you’re ok,
but not every motherboard with such a hardware monitor chip will be
able to change fan speeds.
From one of the very first hardware monitor chips that could be found
in standard PCs, the
National Semiconductor LM75 (and all of its clones, like the Philips
NE1617 and the Philips
NE1618 or the Maxim MAX1617) or the Analog Devices ADM1021, such chips
have been greatly
improved, both in their precision and in their capabilities. Current
chips can monitor fan speeds,
voltages and change fan speeds by using PWMs (Pulse Width Modulation).
Some chips can even
be programmed to vary fan speeds without any additional software
intervention. If your BIOS was
programmed to setup such chips this way you can still try to use
SpeedFan’s Advanced
Configuration to revert to manual (software controlled) mode. Winbond
W83697HF, Analog
Devices ADT7463, SMSC EMC6D102, ITE IT8712F, National LM85C and Maxim
MAX6650 are
very good candidates. Some SuperIO chips include temperature sensors
too. SpeedFan can
automatically detect them and use their features. SpeedFan can find
almost any hardware
monitor chip connected to the 2-wire SMBus (System Management Bus, a
subset of the I2C
BUS) Serial Interface and to the ISA BUS and works fine with Windows
9x, ME, NT, 2000, 2003
and Windows XP. It works with Windows 64 bit too. It can be minimized
to the tray and is
compatible with Motherboard Monitor 5.

 

Freenet 0.7

http://freenetproject.org/

There are governments out there in the world that do not allow free
speech or the free practice of
your chosen faith. Perhaps one day it could happen here if the wrong
people are put into office.
Freedom requires vigilance or it can be lost forever. If you have
friends who reside in those not so
free countries, Freenet is a good way to keep in touch with them.

Freenet is free software which lets you publish and obtain information
on the Internet without fear
of censorship. To achieve this freedom, the network is entirely
decentralized and publishers and
consumers of information are anonymous. Without anonymity there can
never be true freedom of
speech, and without decentralization the network will be vulnerable to attack.
Communications by Freenet nodes are encrypted and are “routed-through”
other nodes to make it
extremely difficult to determine who is requesting the information and
what its content is.
Users contribute to the network by giving bandwidth and a portion of
their hard drive (called the
“data store”) for storing files. Unlike other peer-to-peer file
sharing networks, Freenet does not let
the user control what is stored in the data store. Instead, files are
kept or deleted depending on
how popular they are, with the least popular being discarded to make
way for newer or more
popular content. Files in the data store are encrypted to reduce the
likelihood of prosecution by
persons wishing to censor Freenet content.

Returnil Virtual System Personal Edition v2.0

http://www.returnilvirtualsystem.com/index.htm

The Returnil
Virtual System 2008 Personal Edition is designed to introduce the
benefits of integrating Instant System Recovery (ISR) within the
user’s computer security strategy and provides both a demonstration
platform for Returnil’s solutions and a means for Returnil to realize
its commitment to provide everyone access to this essential type of
curative technology.

Returnil virtualization technology clones a computer’s System
Partition and boots the PC into this system rather than native
Windows, allowing users to run your applications in a completely
isolated environment.
Hence the session and all activity, malicious or otherwise, will
happen in the virtual environment, not in the real PC environment. If
the PC is attacked or gets infected, all you need to do is to simply
reboot the PC

ThreatFire 3.0.14

http://www.threatfire.com/download/

If I already have antivirus software why do I need ThreatFire?

ThreatFire is dramatically different to traditional antivirus
software. Normal antivirus products usually need to have first
identified and seen a threat before they can provide adequate
protection against it. The protection is then provided via a signature
or fingerprint update, which must first be written by an antivirus
researcher. This creates a large window of time where threats are
undetected and can therefore infect your PC even when you have
antivirus software installed.
How can ThreatFire protect me when traditional antivirus can’t?

ThreatFire continually protects your PC against attacks by detecting
malicious behavior, such as capturing your keystrokes or stealing your
data, instead of only looking for known threats like normal antivirus
software. By implementing sophisticated real-time behavioral analysis
ThreatFire is able to stop never- before-seen “zero-day” threats
solely by detecting their malicious activity.
Zero-day threats are usually designed to take advantage of new
vulnerabilities or exploits that are currently unprotected by
traditional security products. They are usually distributed in huge
quantities very quickly by mass email (SPAM), website hijacks, instant
messaging or over peer-to-peer networks. Because they are undetectable
they are able to wreak havoc and compromise your PC even when you have
up-to-date antivirus software installed.

ThreatFire’s patent-pending ActiveDefense technology offers protection
against all types of internet threats - both known and unknown -
spyware, adware, keyloggers, viruses, worms, Trojans, rootkits, buffer
overflows, and other malware. ThreatFire uses its unparalleled
protection to hunt down and paralyze those threats that are either too
new or too clever to be recognized by traditional “signature-based”
antivirus software.
Do I need to be an expert to use ThreatFire?

ThreatFire is advanced technology designed especially for people, not
just experts.

We believe security software should be “set and forget” so once you
install ThreatFire you won’t need to answer lots of technical
questions, in fact the only time you should even notice ThreatFire is
protecting your PC is when we detect something malicious that requires
your attention.
