Gspace 0.5.93

Gmail Space is an extension to the Firefox browser which turns your Gmail account into a Web drive, so you can share your content from several systems without the need of carrying them with you and through a simple to use interface.

Version 0.5.93 is a bug-fixing release.

Quick Tip: Closing pop-ups the safe way

Confronting a pop-up is one of those times when your gut reaction might lead you down the path of frustration and tears. If the "X" is spring-loaded with malware, anywhere you click on the pop-up could trigger that virus.

This is the path less traveled--the majority of pop-ups truly are the ads they appear to be--but when a pop-up does deliver malware, undoing the damage could be a tense, jittery journey. We get enough panicky Spyware Horror Story submissions to know that so-called button flips and booby-trapped Close buttons continue to deliver malicious payloads

Multiplicity 1.21


Multiplicity is a program that enables users to take multiple computers in their office and control them with a single keyboard and mouse. Each computer continues to have its own physical monitor(s) connected to them. When the user moves their mouse from the monitor connected to one computer to a monitor connected to another computer they are then controlling that computer. A universal clipboard is created between the computers so that text and images can be shared. This allows the user to multiply their desktop computing power immensely.

Version 1.21 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes

Process Explorer 11.13


Process Explorer is an advanced process management utility that picks up where Task Manager leaves off. It will show you detailed information about a process including its icon, command-line, full image path, memory statistics, user account, security attributes, and more. When you zoom in on a particular process you can list the DLLs it has loaded or the operating system resource handles it has open. A search capability enables you to track down a process that has a resource opened, such as a file, directory or Registry key, or to view the list of processes that have a DLL loaded. The Process Explorer display consists of two sub-windows. The top always shows a list of the currently active processes, including the names of their owning accounts, whereas the information displayed in the bottom window, which you can close, depends on the mode that Process Explorer is in: if it is in handle mode you will see the handles that the process selected in the top window has opened; if Process Explorer is in DLL mode you will see the DLLs and memory-mapped files that the process has loaded.

Version 11.13 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.
