6. Yahoo! Toolbar 8.1.0.51 Build 2009.9.20.2 (for IE 5.5+ - 28th sept 2009) - ad-supported

This software will be installed as an addon to IE 5.5+.
I am not a fun to installing toolbars and lots of addons because of their needs of memory resources and for lots of bugs that can they provoke.
But is your choice and not mine.
It depends of every experience. If i see some unusual stuff i will tell them.
It includes a search box, bookmark support, spyware removal and anti-spy and a popup blocker, check your yahoo e-mail and more.

I marked it as ad-supported because at instalation it will try to change the homepage for browsers installed and will try to change the search engine also.

Note: 4/5 (adware - not a bad thing, but it exists and you must know)

7. Yahoo! Widget Engine 4.5.2 Build 10A50 (23rd oct 2008) - ad-supported

It used to be called Konfabulator and it is an widget engine who let's you personalise your desktop with things you like (wifi signal, calculator, calendar, weather ...etc).
Widgets are among us from a long time already so you know what they do, they ease our work or needs. It is up to our computer performance and memory if they are present on desktop every minute. But let's not think about that. I think at the minimum configurations from today it is no problem to run such thing.

Widgets have a nice design and are fully personalisable. They are open formats and if you want you can learn and create your own. You can change the look, feeling, functionality and others so it matches to your personality.

So, what are you waitin'?

Let me know about problems, i didn't find any till now.

Yes it's ad-supported too, but you can choose whether to make or not their default search engine and homepage, so it's not so bad. As long as we have choice we must understand that free software must be suported some way.
Nothing can be free without some support.
What is wrong is... when we don't know.

This still a simple application.
Unpack files in self extracting archive (make sure you make a new folder, there are 3 files),
Use the options in the screen and make your answering machine work for you.

I marked it as ad-supported because it displays some commercials while its running.

Unlocker - Locked files or folders in windows? This is the solution - the best till now!

This is a cool, simple and very useful solution to delete the annoying files that don't want to stop or to be deleted. It answers the next errors: - Cannot delete files or folders: Access is denied - There has been a sharing violation. - The source or destination file may be in use. - The file is in use by another program or user. - Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use. In action: It works as an extension in explorer, allowing us to get rid of error messages such as error when trying to delete files or folders, when the file are currently used by other softs. This application removes file-access restrictions, killing the process Note: 5/5 Licence: free for personal or commercial use (you can donate to help improving or not) Compatible: Windows 2000 / XP / 2003 / Vista Size: 237 KB DOWNLOADS: Unlocker or go to author's page

doPDF - FREE PDF converter

This one i use from almost 2 years and it was usefull almost all the time. I say almost because there are minor bugs that i have encountered. Some of them i solved with option embed fonts some just verifying the source file. What is doPF? It is a free tool to create PDF files from any application. It acts like a virtual printer. It is very easy to install, a small file and not any hidden process. After installation it will appear in your Printers and Faxes list. The PDF file resulted from it can be viewed on any computer with any PDF viewer installed. You can: - customize resolution (from 72 to 2400 dpi) - use predefined size of pages or custom ones - change units - change page orientation - remember saved locations - automaticly open pdf after converting it Using low computer resources it is a great step for it.
