WinCDEmu

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

ISO, RAW, CUE and BIN are installation files that needed to be burned in CDs or DVDs first before they can be installed in specific computers. These files will require a blank CD, a CD burning application with ISO burning feature and the right hardware to implement these operations. These processes could take time and funds especially if the computer does not have the right hardware to burn CDs and DVDs.

This problem could be easily solved by a simple application called WinCDEmu. This application will emulate the functions of CD and DVD hardware with writing (burning) capabilities. The ISO, RAW, CUE and BIN files will be read as installation files. That means you don’t need to burn them on a CD just to initiate installation. The application will automatically read the said files and allow the user full installation.

In order to do this process, the application will create a virtual CD/DVD drive. The virtual drive will detect all these files that could be installed in the application. All the user needs to do is to click the files to initiate the installation. WinCDEmu will allow the user to implement everything without a CD or DVD hardware. Traditional installation could also improve because the application will automatically detect the image in the CD required for installation.

While WinCDEmu eases the operation of application installation, it may require a relatively powerful computer. A virtual drive will require a lot of resources from the user’s computer. But with the rapid improvement of specifications of computers today, WinCDEmu could run in most computers with ease.

Skiffer

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009

Skiffer is a very simple but very useful security application geared for email messages. The application is used to encrypt messages that could be only read by the appointed reader. The application comes with a key that should be shared by two users (the sender and recipient) in order for the email to be read.

The interface of the application is very simple since users will just enter the information they want to be encrypted in the application. A key will be generated on the first use of the application which can only be shared to one person. No one can read the email – except for the user who has the key.

Aside from encrypting the message, Skiffer also comes with a plug-in that could be used in MS Outlook 2003 and 2007. It works like the stand-alone application but it uses the interface of MS Outlook. The only challenge on the plug-in is when you have too many contacts. Since the application could only be used for one person only, the plug-in could be confused and used for those who cannot read the email. A little bit of practice is required before the plug-in could be fully used in MS Outlook.

Although the application is very easy to use, it might not work well for users who are not familiar with encryption. It would take time before the application is fully configured in both ends. But as soon as the encryption key is shared, the application could be used without any problem.

Panda USB Vaccine

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009

USB devices offer portability and durability of storing files and even applications. However, the USB device has become major hub for different viruses as they can auto-run in a computer. The virus can easily inject itself in the gadget especially if the user does not have an active anti-virus application.

The problem of viruses from automatically running from the USB device could be prevented with a simple application called Panda USB Vaccine. In gist, the function of the application is to prevent the USB device from auto-running in computers. This will allow user to run the anti-virus application in the specific USB device before it could be read by the computer. This might seem very simple but disabling the auto-run feature for USB devices is very difficult since Windows OS wanted this feature to allow easy installation of applications.

Panda USB Vaccine also comes with a small application called Computer Vaccination. This application works almost the same as Panda USB Vaccine. However, its focus is on other external device that might come with potentially harmful applications. CDs, DVDs and other external USB devices will be prevented from automatically running in the computer in order to prevent harmful auto-run applications in the computer.

The interface of Panda USB Vaccine is very simple. After installation, the interface gives you two options: run the USB Vaccine or PC Vaccination. These applications will immediately disable the auto-run features depending on which application you choose. Panda USB Vaccine may not be another anti-virus but it comes with a security feature that will prevent viruses from being installed in your computer.

Snowbird

Monday, June 22nd, 2009

Snowbird is a small application that could be used for file search and transfer. At first glance, this application might sound unnecessary since computers already have the capacity to search for specific files and transfer them to various destinations. While this is true, the ability to search and transfer files to different folders might not be as efficient as Snowbird. The default file transfer in computers does not have the capacity to pause and resume transfer of files. Once the user presses “cancel” during file transfer, users have to restart the processes again.

Snowbird is a file transfer application that allows users to pause file transfer. This type of application is very useful when transferring large files from various folders since users can temporarily stop the file transfer in case they need to use the computer. Because of Snowbird’s ability to transfer files efficiently, it might use up a large chunk of resources in the application. The search function of Snowbird is also very efficient since it will aggressively run through the file on the targeted folder. Again, the search function my slow down your computer for the sake of the search function. However, the search tool is very fast so you can sacrifice a small downtime just to get the file you need sooner.

The application may just be limited in two functions: file search and file transfer. But the developers of the application ensure that these functions will be a lot better compared to Windows OS search and transfer tools. The application is also very small as it focuses on file transfer instead of providing interactive features.
