Uncle Monster’s Downloads: HostsMan, CurrPorts, Make Instant Player and OphCrack
This week I’m sending links to some
very cool applications that I’ve come
across. One lets you make a self
running executable file from a video.
Another can crack Windows Passwords.
One for managing your hosts file and
another for working with open ports on
your computer.

CurrPorts v1.40
http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/
CurrPorts displays the list of all currently opened TCP/IP
and UDP ports on your local computer. For each port in the
list, information about the process that opened the port is
also displayed, including the process name, full path of the
process, version information of the process (product name,
file description, and so on), the time that the process was
created, and the user that created it.
In addition, CurrPorts allows you to close unwanted TCP
connections, kill the process that opened the ports, and
save the TCP/UDP ports information to HTML file , XML file,
or to tab-delimited text file.
CurrPorts also automatically mark with pink color suspicious
TCP/UDP ports owned by unidentified applications
(Applications without version information and icons)
