FreeLogger 1.0 Released

FreeLogger is the free, open source key stroke logger.

When you first run this program, there will be a tray icon, to hide it, right click and click "Hide Icon". The program will now run silently in the background. Then when you want to view the log, just hit, alt+ctrl+shift+u, the trayicon will then show again. Now just right click the icon again, and click clear log.

Its a pretty simple program, it is not the best keylogger yet, but it will get the job done.

It logs the window title, text, time, username, and a couple of other things.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

pKiller 1.0 Released.

pKiller is just a small app to stop a process from opening, or to close many processes with the same name, and keep it closed.

I wrote this app because the other day I was testing a program I was writing, that involved launching ie. The program got stuck in a loop and launched a million copies of ie which crached my computer.

With this app, you type in the process name, and hit start. Any time it sees that process, it will kill it. When you want it to stop, just hit stop, or just close it.

This is a safe program to have around when you are programming.

tShot 1.0 Released

tShot was a program I made today while I was writing a blog.

The Problem: I needed a way to take a screenshot of a program that is only active while a key is down. The reason this is a problem is because the way you take a screenshot is with a key combination. So the key you held down for the application would stop the screenshot from triggering.

The Solution: I wrote a very quick program that acts much like a real camera, you set the timer, then pose. With this program, you set the time, then the program disappears while you "pose".

It really helped me out and I hope it will help someone else as well.

Myspace and msplinks

The other day I was on my myspace and as I was hovering over a link I just added I saw this.




What in the world is msplinks?

Well I did some research and found that it is a technique used by myspace to stop spammers.

When they find a spammer or phisher, they put a stop on the address at msplinks, and since all the links on myspace go through msplinks, anybody that clicks on that link will be redirected.

This sounds like a good thing right?

News Corp is a "Global vertically integrated media company", and is also the current owner of myspace.

To me this sounds like a perfect opportunity to get stats on the most popular websites, which might be beneficial to a news company.

Plus, I think I should be able to decide what websites I view.

Thats why I wrote this firefox plugin.

This plugin will convert all msplinks back into the original link.

Please install and spread the word.

A program to make your alt key work like in the xfce system. hold alt and drag a windows to move it. Hold alt and right drag to resize. It has many other features. New release should be out later today.(after I get some sleep)

I also wrote a calculator add on for kiss. (which I just realized i haven't re released yet, because of a name conflict).

Im working on a program that will allow you to use a mouse combination to enter your password.

Working on a program to replicate the hot corners feature on mac.

Also working on a ebook reader.

Also working on a program to allow you to use the explorer bar as a dos command prompt.

I haven't started working on this, but I would like to add some kind of identifier for mDesktop, to show you what desktop you are on.

Well anyway, thats my daily update.

Im going to grab some z's.

uKey

uKey(usbKey) is a program that can lock your computer using a usb drive.

You plug the drive in, launch uKey, select the drive, then bam.

Pull the key out and your computer will lock up.
Put in back in and it will unlock.

Also, later today there should be new releases of winLight and Quick Google. I added a histroy to the both of them. So now, you start to type in the box and it will auto complete it.
Its a cool add on.

Also with Quick Google, im adding other search engines with the possibility to add your own.

Well anyway, alot to look forward to.

If anyone know of a good free desktop capturing program I would like to hear about it. I have tried camstudio but the quality is not good enough.
