Bopup Messenger is a secure instant messenger built to communicate over LAN and enterprise-size networks. A clear and easy to understand program, Bopup Messenger 5.4.8 is light and does not affect the speed of your computer when installed. It offers a set of corporate features and responds to most nagging business challenges you may have.
Bopup allows users to easily and conveniently interact from different offices and locations to a single IM workspace and exchange files and documents as they wish without any hindrance. Users can exchange urgent files, extended messages with links, font and colour formatting and graphic emoticons. One other great feature of Bopup is that you can organize your personal contact lists which are accessible to you from any workplace and see who is online.
Bopup is not a freeware program and if you need to have it installed on your computer, you may have to part with the sum of $12.90. I do not really wish to dwell much on the price, but I think the price is still within the reach of many.

A moderate application that helps to recover network keys such as: WEP/WPA stored in a system by what is known as Wireless Zero Configuration service of Windows XP and by the WLAN Autoconfig service of Windows Vista. Users can easily save all keys to text/html files, or copy a single key to clipboard.
The pleasant thing about this program is not only that it can be downloaded freely, but that it can compete with other paid programs. Really, if you are the type that forgets keys easily or probably you got a lot of keys, WirelessKeyView 1.32 can help you recover them. It also protects your keys from outsiders.
Migrating from one operating system or computer to another could cause you some problems if you do not remember the keys. This is one area where I quite commend the publishers. At least you are certainly not going to have problems with your keys any longer. Let me just add that WirelessKeyView 1.32 can only recover keys already stored on your Windows Operating Systems and not those stored by third parties.

Comodo Internet Security is one program that integrates all every other security programs on the Comodo stable. The program comprises: Comodo Firewall; Comodo Defense+ and Comodo Antivirus all in a seamless manner. The publishers have fixed some bugs noticed in the previous version of Comodo Internet Security.
It is not every time you get to find a good program that cost nothing during download. Comodo Internet Security is a good freeware program that offers you even more than some so called shareware programs. It does not take time for it to settle and get used to your computer, nor does it cause your computer to slow down.
The fact that the publishers have fixed all the bugs noticed in previous edition shows that they know what they are doing. I may not be a fan of free security programs when it comes to security, but I think this one is worth trying out.
Some of its cool features include: anti-Malware which enables it to kill all malicious processes before they are able to do your computer any damage; cutting edge protection against sophisticated buffer over flow attacks and many others.

KDE 4.4 RC2 is a nice piece of program that is good for your desktop environment. It uniquely combines ease of use alongside a wonderful graphical design with the UNIX operating system. KDE 4.4 RC2 is an open source and is developed over the internet, while discussion only takes place on their mailing lists and USENET News groups. As far as KDE 4.4 RC2 is concerned, users are also free to distribute it without any restrictions, as long as the GNU license is complied with.
Even though KDE 4.4 RC2 is an open source program, I am not impressed with the way it takes up so much space on my system. As a matter of fact, I was really expecting an improvement on the last version. To be honest, this version in review is not as impressive as the last one. I have no problem with the look, as a matter of fact, the publishers did a great job on it and this is quite commendable. Like I said already, this version still needs some minor touches here and there.
Users can have the benefits of enjoying great features like: quick launch which is still on the taskbar; wonderful cool effects and other cool features.

Sometimes when you are too busy working on your computer, you need a very good email manager to enable you concentrate on other things. Gmail Manager 0.6 gives you that extra edge you need to get going when it comes to email management. With Gmail Manager, you can have all your Gmail accounts all in one place.
The advantage of using Gmail Manager is the fact that you can receive new email notifications as soon as they get into your box without really having to wait till when you login to your box. Some of the features are: display of account details which includes read and unread messages; saved drafts; spam messages; label with new mails; space already used and new mail snippets.
Users also get to enjoy this freeware application with newly added features like: support for Firefox; better account management with an improved options interface; drag and drop support for the status bar/ toolbar placement and others.

Spybot–Search & Destroy 1.6.2.46 is a security program that helps your computer fight every threat that comes to it. It detects and removes threats posed by spyware, this is one threat not yet covered by most Antivirus programs. Spybot does its work silently at the background by keeping track of your browsing behavior to create profiles that are in turn transmitted even without your knowledge to advertising companies.
Most times you may discover some toolbars you did not install on your won. This is the work of spyware, and an indication that the security of your computer has been compromised. More spyware are introduced online each passing day, and sometimes you may not see any symptoms of threats. Though Spybot Search and Destroy 1.6.2.46 is a free security program, it is still a good program.
Spybot-Search and Destroy is a bit too slow when scanning your computer. Users whose systems are slow may have to be a bit patient when using it to scan their computers. It is fair enough, but I still think that any user who desires a top notch security for their computers should go for a paid program.

One of the most flexible and easy to use DVD Maker I have seen. Video DVD Maker Free 3.25.0.65 is light and does not give you any problem when you are downloading and installing it on your system. Users who are not too good with programs like this can still go ahead to enjoy high quality outputs, even when they are considered as amateurs on things like this.
Though Video DVD Maker Free is easy to use, it takes a lot of time to burn a video, and this is a big minus for this program. It really does not bother me if a program is light but still cannot be effective in some core features. This should be central in their plans.
Some of the features of this version include: ability to capture videos from any video device; import any video file; slide shows by photos; DVD menu designer; a feature that allows users to burn videos to any file format. On the whole, it is not a bad idea to have it published by the publishers.
