  1. Review - KeePass Password Safe Professional Edition

    2.05 Alpha (Apr 20, 2008)

    @xee: KeePass 1.xx is still in development and doesn't rely on .NET! (Go to the developer's homepage to find it.)

  2. Review - Agnitum Outpost Firewall Pro (32-bit)

    4.0 (1024.700.292) (Jun 24, 2007)

    @Ninjeratu:
    I would suggest you keep an open mind before saying "it's a DRIVER issue because the BSOD says so". "STOP" errors sometime have multiple causes that range from faulty hardware to driver problems to software incompatibilities. The MSKB shows some possible causes, but googling for a minute often shows many more that depend on various hardware/software configs. While it's not really surprising that this kind of conflict should happen, it's disappointing.

    Regardless, using a firewall shouldn't require any kind of driver upgrade, especially those that might cause a properly working system to stop working (especially GPU drivers... if it ain't broken, don't fix it!)

    And FYI: No Windoze firewall, working system not formatted for 4 months beforehand, stable without a single bluescreen except for these.

    I've switched to Comodo in the meantime. It's annoyingly talkative, but better than this.

  3. Review - CCleaner for Windows

    1.40.520 (Jun 6, 2007)

    How about secure erasing the prefetch folder? Or is that not a good reason to use this feature in CCleaner?

    Since I use this weekly, am not bothered by adware that isn't forced onto my system (it clearly gives the option to install it or not), and it does what I want it to... it still gets a 5 from me.

  4. Review - Free Download Manager

    2.3 Build 637 Beta 5 (Jun 4, 2007)

    This is a great tool, it fulfills its main purpose well, and it's free.

    The only thing I hate is the naming scheme for the options. Finding the right place to change a particular setting is confusing for a while, so I rate this a 4.

  5. Review - DAEMON Tools Lite

    4.09.1 (May 30, 2007)

    Below issue was fixed on May 5th. Still a 5 from me!
