3D Ant Attack v1.02 -- WinXP/Vista/Win7 (5 doves)
3D Ant Attack is a retro arcade game where you rescue people from a 3D city swarming with giant ants. It features challenging gameplay, simple 3D graphics, multiple camera views, multiple color schemes, multiple screen resolutions (including widescreen), and more. This is a remake of the classic 1983 Sinclair ZX Spectrum arcade game of the same name which was seen at that time as a breakthrough in 3D graphics. 3D Ant Attack is much harder to play than its simple graphics might indicate. You have to wend your way through a city infested with these giant ants, rescuing people as you go. As you progress through the game the people you save are harder to find. You can use a grenade to stun or kill the ants, or you can jump on them to stun them long enough to get to the next place of safety. Controls are simple, with the arrow keys for movement, the spacebar to jump, and the right Ctrl key to throw grenades. When throwing grenades, the distance they travel equates to how long you hold down the Ctrl key before releasing. Release too soon and the grenade will fall short and kill you. You will also get killed if the ants bite you often enough -- and you will become ant food. Even though this is a relatively faithful reproduction of this old game, 3D Ant Attack holds up well today. What it lacks in fancy eye candy it makes up for in challenge, and this is one remake that is very much still playable today by people who never played the original (unlike many remakes that rely on nostalgia for their popularity). 3D Ant Attack is a great way to kill an hour or three. We loved! Note: we have been advised that this program is not suitable for Windows 95, 98 or ME. Access this 5.73MB download from:

Easy Image Modifier v3.0 -- WinXP/Vista/Win7 (5 doves)
Easy Image Modifier is a batch photo editor. It processes single images or entire folders, supports common image formats (JPG, BMP & PNG), offers basic image editing (resize, realign, change format, set watermark, rename, sort, resize unproportional, remove meta information, filter images, change file date, set JPG compression level, etc), and more. This is a simple photo editor which is designed for batch processing. It will resize all your images (optionally keeping the proportions correct), add a watermark, rotate images, and more. While Easy Image Modifier is not an alternative to Photoshop or other sophisticated image editors, for basic editing it is very good, and very fast. It supports three popular image formats, loading and saving to them, and converting between them. We also noticed that it processed GIF and TGA images too, but didn't allow you to save to those formats. The watermark feature was appreciated, but you could not change the opacity of the watermark, though you could change the location of the text, the font, and the font attributes (including color). While Easy Image Modifier is not designed to be a competitor to the commercial photo editors, as a batch image processor it works extremely well within its own limitations. Small, fast and efficient, Easy Image Modifier is worth having around for those quick batch jobs on your digital photos. We liked! Note we have been advised that this program is not suitable for Windows 95, 98 or ME. Access this 375k download from:

BitDefender Rescue CD -- WinXP/Vista/Win7 (5 doves)
BitDefender Rescue CD is an ISO disk image that creates a bootable, Linux-based CD. It is designed to scan and disinfect all existing hard drives when the operating system is not working properly because of virus infections. The ISO image can also be mounted on a USB drive after following the instructions on the program's support page. Useful when virus infections have crippled your computer, this is a tool you will need to have downloaded before you have a problem. After the disk has been created, simply ensure that your computer will boot from your CD drive (this is set in the BIOS) and allow the computer to boot up using this Linux-based rescue disk. Once booted up, it will seek the internet to download the virus definitions, etc to be able to scan your computer. This is about a 15MB download. It will then scan your computer (all drives) and resolve any virus issues. While we were able to successfully boot up using BitDefender Rescue CD, we didn't have any virus activity that needed to be removed so we cannot comment on the value or otherwise of that part of the system. The Linux interface you see once the disk is booted up is very close to what you normally see with Windows, so most non-Linux users should have no trouble using this rescue CD. However, we suggest that, once the disk is created, a new user should boot into it and see what happens. You can stop the scan once it has started if you don't want to wait while it scans the entire computer. Once you have familiarized yourself with the disk you will feel more comfortable using it if there is a problem on your computer. The CD includes a few other tools, like a Web browser, but its primary task is to scan and clean your computer of malware. The biggest problem with BitDefender Rescue CD is that it needs an active Internet connection to get the updates, and there have been instances where it hasn't been able to access the network. This makes a pre-problem test all the more worthwhile. We were impressed with BitDefender Rescue CD. It is a large file to get, and you will have to burn the disk image onto a CD or DVD, but if you ever have problems with viruses (virii?) you will be pleased you took the trouble to be prepared.

SSDLife Free v1.0.12 -- WinXP/Vista/Win7 (5 doves)
SSDLife Free is a compact SSD (solid state drive) diagnostic tool. It displays general & technical information about an SSD, checks the SSD health status, displays a detailed on-line SSD health status report, and more. Unfortunately CFS was unable to review this program. The author says: "Today, more and more users decide to replace conventional hard drives in their desktop PCs and laptops with modern, silent and fast solid state drives (SSD). Since the price of these new devices is still rather high and they are often used for storing sensitive data, regular checks of the status of these drives can be an efficient means of early problem detection and can prevent potential data loss. Among all other disk management tools, there are specialized applications that are created specifically for SSD devices and support the majority of controllers and storage devices available on the market. If you take SSD's seriously and have already replaced conventional hard drives with SSD units, don't forget that their life expectancy is considerably shorter than that of regular hard drives. The age of these devices is relatively short and you should be financially and organizationally ready to replace them when the time comes." There is a Pro version and a Free version of this product. The author says: "The main feature of the paid version is the possibility to run disk checks (scheduled) in the background mode, display detailed information about SMART attributes and tweak the system for use with SSD drives." If you have a solid state drive (SSD) then grab a copy of SSDLife Free. Note: we have been advised that this program is not suitable for Windows 95, 98 or ME. Access this 1.55MB download from:

Hewbo Video Converter v1.50 -- WinXP/Vista/Win7 (5 doves)
Hewbo Video Converter is a tool that converts videos to AVI, DivX AVI, XviD AVI, 3GP, 3G2, MP4, WMV, MKV, TS, FLV, SWF, MOV, GIF, MP3, MP2, OGG, WMA, WAV, AAC, AC3, AU, MMF & M4A formats, as used on iPhone, iPod, iPad, Apple TV, Android devices, PSP, PS3, XBOX360, ZUNE, Nokia, BlackBerry, Sony Ericsson, Motorola, LG, Samsung, Blu-ray disc, NTSC DVD, PAL DVD, and more. This is a video to video (and audio) converter that covers virtually every filetype you can imagine. It will even convert a DVD's VOB file to any of the supported formats, though most movies have multiple VOB files (usually of 1GB each) so you might have to convert them separately and then combine them using a video editor. Hewbo Video Converter is extremely simple to use, and is suitable for both novice and experienced PC users. We had a couple of issues with Hewbo Video Converter. We assume that you must have all the appropriate codec library (like K-Lite) preloaded on your computer to attain the full range of
supported conversions. This is not outlined within the program, or on the author's Website. However, some codecs are included with the program, and some come with Windows, so most basic conversions should be covered. We were also disappointed in the consistent nagscreen for you to register (and pay) for the Pro version. Apart from the nagscreen, we could not find any restriction in the use of the free version, even though the nagscreen says that registering will: "Remove all limitations of free version." Maybe that is talking about the lack of batch processing... With its bland interface, a lack of any real information, and the annoying nagscreen, we didn't want to like Hewbo Video Converter. However, it works so well, and is so simple to use, it is hard to dislike. If you don't mind being nagged, and not being able to carry out batch processing, you will find Hewbo Video Converter an excellent conversion tool. Note: we have been advised that this program is not suitable for Windows 95, 98 or ME. Access this 3.55MB download from:

KeepNote v0.6.5 -- WinXP/Vista/Win7 (5 doves)
KeepNote is a note taking application that stores all types of notes. It features rich-text formatting, you can include images, it uses an hierarchical organization for notes, it offers a full-text search, you can add an integrated screenshot & file attachments, it offers backup & restore, auto-saving, and more. This is a great way of storing class notes, TODO lists, research notes, journal entries, paper outlines, etc. Using an hierarchical system, you can sort your notes easily, but still find what you are looking for quickly using the search function. You can add a screenshot to your notes, add highlighting to the text, and even share your notes with users of KeepNote using other operating systems (Linux & MacOSX) as notes are implemented in Python and PyGTK. You can also archive your notes to a ZIP file. One of the better hierarchical notetakers, KeepNote is worth a look. Check it out now!

Tapin Radio v1.20 -- WinXP/Vista/Win7 (5 doves)
Tapin Radio is an Internet radio station player. It features over 10,000 preset stations sorted by country & genre, includes worldwide air traffic control & rail radio traffic transmissions, you can record the active station (including separate song files), save stations as Favorites, it supports most Internet radio formats (MP3, WMA, OGG, AAC+, etc), there are regular station preset updates, and more. This is a great way of accessing radio stations from around the world -- and even recording their output. It offers over 60 categories of station (genres), each sorted by country, and a growing list of Internet radio stations. You can also listen to many air traffic control transmissions from around the world. To make it even better, it can record individual song tracks, automatically separating them. Cool. Sound quality is generally excellent, though this does depend on the quality of the transmitted audio of the individual station. While the interface is a little bland, it is very functional and the program can be minimized to the tray and run in the background. We were impressed with Tapin Radio. The navigation is a little clumsy but you can easily select the station you wish to hear and even save it as a Favorite for fast access next time. If you enjoy listening to the radio through your computer then grab a copy of Tapin Radio. We liked! Note: we have been advised that this program is not suitable for Windows 95, 98 or ME.

Mudding Racer v1.0 -- WinXP/Vista/Win7 (4 doves)
Mudding Racer is a top-down, dirt track, 4x4 racing game. It features an intelligent opposition that is able to recover from scuffles with greater ease & get back onto the course, improved physics, customizable 4x4, and more. In Mudding Racer you use the arrow keys to move your vehicle -- up/down for forward and reverse, left/right for steering. You play the game looking down on a very bland track with some straights and a few hair-pin bends. Because you are trying to control your 4x4 with the arrow keys from a different perspective it is awkward to play. Combined with boring scenery and childish vehicles, Mudding Racer is not a game that will bring you back to play it again unless you have masochistic tendencies. We don't, so we were happy to uninstall Mudding Racer from our computer. Save your download bandwidth for a better racing game (of which there are many!).

COMPUTER TIP OF THE WEEK
from Dr T -- RTemlak4dds@aol.com
Q:
I would like to remove some programs from my computer, but when I go to the Add/Remove Programs section of the Control Panel, the Change/Remove button that's normally there is missing. What can I do to get it back so I can get these programs uninstalled from my PC? Any help you have would be greatly appreciated!
A:
Wow, that has to be so frustrating! I have to admit that I have never had this happen to me before. (On another note, I also have to admit that I don't go through and remove my programs like I should sometimes. Shhh! Don't tell on me!) Either way, I still feel your pain with this one and after a little research, I was able to find a quick fix for this. Let's check it out, shall we?!
First of all, if some of you aren't quite sure what I'm talking about, go to Start, Control Panel and select the Add/Remove Programs link. There you will see a list of all the programs you have installed on your computer. If you run down through that list and highlight your programs, there should be a Change/Remove button for each of those applications. With that button, you can control all that you do with your programs.
You can either change them or completely remove them from your computer. So, as you can see, if that button isn't there, all your control is gone and that is what's ailing the person who asked today's question. With all that said, let's get on with the show!
Warning: For this tip, you will be working in your Registry Editor, so before you begin, make sure you're comfortable using it. The Registry Editor is not a tool to just play around with. If you make a mistake, you could risk messing up other parts of your computer and so on. If you're not 100 percent sure you can do this, please ask someone who is for some help.


When you're ready, just simply follow these steps to get your Change/Remove buttons back:


1.) Go to Start, Run and type "regedit" (without the quotes) into the box. Click OK and the Registry Editor will open for you.


2.) Then navigate to this location: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\<Program Name>." (Note: for the program name, you'll want to look for the program you want to remove from your computer).


3.) In the right pane, double click the NoRemove choice (REG_DWORD) and set the value to 0 (zero). If it happens to be set to 1, the Remove button will not be available.


4.) Back in the right pane, double click the NoModify option (REG_DWORD) and set it to 0 (zero) as well. If this happens to be set to 1, the Change button will not be available.
Now, you will need to do this for each program you want to remove, but once you change those two values, click OK and close everything else out. Then go back to the Control Panel and look through your list of programs.
All of the Change/Remove buttons should be back for you and you can then continue removing all those unnecessary programs from your computer. No more missing buttons. Oh yeah!

Computer Tips Weekly [ How You Are Killing Your Battery + Become A YouTube Master In Seconds + File Name Print Trick ] 09/17/2010

	Gail from Oklahoma asks: Will USB gadgets like the Chill Pad or Flexible light make my laptop battery wear out sooner? In short Gail, the answer to that would be yes. Think of your laptop battery in terms of a car's engine. The harder a car works, the more gasoline it uses and the more energy your laptop is putting out, the more juice it is sucking from its battery. A chill mat is a thin device with fans on it that goes under the laptop. The fans blow cold air up into the laptop in order to keep it cooled. You see, in all actuality, the chill pads are very beneficial. Did you know that your computer running all the time and getting warm will actually cause your laptop battery to wear out sooner? It's true. As for the flexible light wearing your battery out sooner, all that will happen is that you may need to plug in your laptop to an alternate power source a bit sooner than usual. As with the chill pads, there are some pretty good advantages with the flexible light. It is great for those who work in the dark because they do not want to disturb those around them. It is highly portable and great for individuals that travel. No external power is needed, though you probably already know that. I love the flexible neck, which allows you to position the light exactly how you want it. Many laptops have a built-in mouse pad and there's no need to add an external keyboard, so your computer's battery lasts for a long period of time. However, once you start adding external devices that require battery power this will put additional strain on your battery. If at all possible, try to stay away from USB gadgets with unnecessary lights on them. The light on my external mouse is the equivalent to the flexible light that you mentioned in your question. I have noticed that my battery lasts a bit longer when I simply use the built-in mouse instead. Now, I would like to go over some of the USB gadgets with you and tell you a bit about their cool benefits to ease your concerns! There are so many different USB gadgets out there. They seem to be the newest craze in technology. They have taken many offices by storm. Do you dream of an item that can be powered by juice that comes through a USB cord? Then it more than likely already exists. In fact, the only disadvantage with the USB devices that you plug into the laptop would be the fact that they have to be plugged in. Hopefully, in a couple of years, the devices will start to be wireless, like the mouse and keyboards available for desktop computers. Besides the chill pad and the flexible light, there are other gadgets out there, which use up a small portion of your laptop battery, but are lots of fun to use from time to time. The first one would be the mood setter. The mood setter is either an incense burner or a colorful light that has a small spinning lamp. What purpose do they serve? They will allow you to take a break and take your mind off of work for a couple of minutes. They help you become more productive at work as they improve your concentration. You also have efficiency enhancers. These are gadgets that have been created to do a certain task that is needed in order to keep you efficiently working. You have cordless access devices, application switches, wireless connection devices, and portable drives. They give you mobility and versatility by quickly connecting to your USB. Don't forget about the entertainment USB gadgets. These gadgets come in almost every size, shape and description. Do you remember that popular whack-a-mole game that you played as a child? Would you believe it if we told you that there is a USB gadget that will allow you to do this at home? Do you enjoy playing the piano or guitar? Then there are plenty of USB devices that act like instruments. You also have cartoon characters that sing, spin, play ball, and dance. In summary Gail, when you are buying these devices that plug into your laptop, it is important that you read reviews on them beforehand. It is also important that you have a budget set and know what you are going to spend. If you do not do this, then you may end up spending more than intended since some of the devices are expensive and you could get carried away with all of these cool doodads. You may also want to consider a backup battery if you are inclined to use many USB devices with your laptop computer – especially at the same time. ~Cory Buford Click here to rate this tip | Printer friendly version ----- Milford asks: I am alphabetizing my music and would like to print a list of all the files in my music folder. It would be such a hassle to type each one into a document. Can I quickly print the names of all the files in that folder? Thanks for the question Milford. This is one we get asked all the time. There are programs out there that you can get, in fact we reviewed one called PrintFolders last year... http://www.worldstart.com/tips/tips.php/319 But you can also make a printable list of a folder's contents without needing third-party software. Here's how: First you need to open the folder, right-click a blank area in it and select "Properties". Next to where it says "Location" you'll find the path of the file. You could write this down or move the window to the bottom of your screen. Next you need to get a command prompt. Go to Start/Run and type in "cmd" (without the quotes). The prompt will most likely be the same as the beginning of your folder path. Move the command window up to the top of your screen so you can see both the command window and the properties window for your folder. Next to the C prompt type in "cd" (space) followed by the location. For example... C:\Documents and Settings\Compaq_Owner>cd Desktop\WORK\Cartoons Enter At the next prompt type in "dir" (space) /B (space) > (space) list.txt. For example... C:\Documents and Settings\Compaq_Owner\Desktop\WORK\Cartoons>dir /B > list.txt Enter Type "Exit" to close out the command window. Now, look in the folder and you'll see a file called "list.txt"—this is your list of folder contents. Open it up and print it out. ~ David Click here to rate this tip | Printer friendly version Do you have a question for us? Ask it here! MS PowerPoint 2010: Easily Customized Presentation Handouts We’ve all seen and used the standard PowerPoint handouts. Without a doubt they’re often helpful for the audience but let’s face it, there are times when you want to give your audience a bit more in a handout without actually adding that information to the slide. Given that situation, you’ve got to wonder if there’s a way to easily customize those standard handouts to include more than just the slides and a few blank lines. While I’m sure there are many feasible solutions to the situation today I’d like to take a look at the Create Handouts feature that’s a part of PowerPoint 2010’s Save & Send set of choices.

There are occasions where it's helpful for reporting information, appointments, etc. Heck, I even find it helpful for keeping track of pay periods. Instead of counting Fridays on a calendar I simply need to know if I'm paid on odd or even week numbers (being paid bi-weekly). Trust me, the whole count Fridays thing in overrated… it's way too easy to miss or double count Fridays when you change from one month to another. At any rate, whatever use you may find for the week number, here's how you can get Outlook to display that information on your calendars.

Numerous bruises and scrapes finally forced me to quit trying to walk and chew gum at the same time. My early attempts at navigating three virtual dimensions in Google SketchUp offered similar challenges (with fewer injuries). Once I got my bearings though, I found Sketchup to be a wonderful, user friendly tool. However, learning some basics helped make that transition much smoother. Hopefully, the tips here will help you enjoy a similar experience. First a little background. What is SketchUp? SketchUp is 3D modeling software, with which you can create and edit nearly anything in 3D. For example, with a model of your house, you can walk around the outside, down the halls, and into the rooms. Of course, you can do that in real life already, so why bother creating a virtual model? Suppose you're considering a remodel. With SketchUp, you can quickly add walls, windows, and doors, or add and move furniture and fixtures. Then you can take a look from any angle. Just about any changes you can make in real life can be accomplished here first, before you lift a finger (or before you smack that finger with a hammer). Frequently, construction ideas sound much better than they look. With SketchUp, you can take the guesswork out of the equation. Or, you can just have fun. To begin that fun, click here.

You can see my regular computer's desktop in the background, and right there in the browser window is the remote computer! It was just like I was there at the office, sitting in front of that computer! I had complete control over everything on it!  Oh, and it's not just limited to just using the remote computer either (although that part is really sweet)! You can actually download files from the remote computer to the computer you're sitting in front of too! Ever leave a file at home that you really need? No problem - just log onto your home computer and download the file to the computer you're working on! Just run the File Browser and double-click any file you want to download - it's that simple: Just imagine the uses for this - you're at a friends house and need access to your PC to show them your latest vacation photos - DONE! You're at home and need access to files on your work computer - DONE! You remember you need to finish a document and have access to a public computer - just log on - DONE! You need to look at your e-mail but only have the computer at your hotel - DONE! You're on the road with your laptop and need access to that presentation you left on your home or office PC - DONE! Oh, and what if there's a webpage at home that you really need access to but you can't remember the link? Hey we've all been there! Sure, you marked it as a favorite on your home computer, but that doesn't help when you're away - unless you have THIS software! It has a Favorites Browser! Just run the Favorites Browser, double-click the link you want, and a browser window will open on your computer and jump to that link! Now THAT'S thinkin'!!! Yup, with this amazing software, no matter where you are, you can access your PC, all your files, AND all your favorites! Here's the main features: Remote Desktop Remotely control your PC from anywhere - and use it as if you were sitting in right front of it! Internet Favorites No need to try to remember the address of your favorite websites!  Now remotely access your Internet Favorites (bookmarks) from any PC! File Transfer Transfer multiple files or directories quickly and easily between your PCs - across the room or across the world! WOW! Remote Desktop Search and Send Find and forward any file or e-mail from your remote PC using Remote Desktop Search. Quick and easy! One-Click Remote Access Remote Desktop Control, Remote Access to Outlook, Remote File Transfer, Remote Synchronization, and more with only one-click! Download or Upload With the simple dual-pane interface, download or upload any files or folders that you need. Send Files as Secure Download Links Send a secure download links instead of  attachments, no matter the size. No more "big attachment" hassles or long upload times! Synchronize Folders Use Laplink's patented SpeedSync technology to quickly and easily sync between your PCs. I mean, think about it. How many times have you been in a situation where you wished you could access something on a computer that was miles and miles away? Maybe it's nothing more than a web site you want to share with a friend, or perhaps it's a critical document or presentation that could cost you thousands. Maybe you have software installed on your remote PC that's not on your laptop - but you need to use it anyway. No matter what, this software can give save the day! I'll give you a real world example of just how cool this is - I have been on the road with my laptop a lot lately, but my main computer is the one at home. So, I installed this software. What a difference! Traveling has never been so EASY! Now when I'm on the road with my laptop, I simply log into my home computer to work! I completely run the office from my home computer- just like I normally do! It's like I'm sitting right in front of it! Talk about awesome! OK, I know what you're thinking - "Is this safe?" YES! It uses the same technology as online banking! We're talking mind-blowing, bullet-proof security here! You're computer is in way more danger of being physically stolen than hacked into because of this software! It really couldn't be safer! Oh, and setup is easier than fallin' off a wet slippery log! First, you just install the software on the PC you want to access. Easy enough! Once the software is installed, you create a username and password. That's it! You're ready to log onto your computer - from anywhere! What's next? Oh you are gonna just LOVE this! Once you're setup, you'll have a web address you can access (you can easily log on via LapLink's site if you forget the address, so no worries there, in fact, that's how I normally do it). From there, just log in with your username and password - in seconds you'll see YOUR remote computer in your web browser, have access to your e-mail, have all your files at your fingertips, be able to run any or all of your programs, or even access your internet favs! Again, not only can you SEE your remote computer, you can completely access it - From ANYWHERE!! Plus, it's soooooooo easy to use - as long as you can type in a user name and password, you're qualified to use it! Here's the page you log into your remote computer from: Heck, if you use it a lot with the same computer, they even have a handy Toolbar for your browser that makes logging in even easier! You may have even seen this type of thing in action before. If you've ever been with a tech support rep and had them remotely access your computer (kind of fun watching your mouse move around on its own, lol), then you've seen this type of technology in action! Now, YOU can do the same thing! OK, what if you don't have a computer handy? Good question! Turns out the geniuses over at Laplink thought of that too! If you have a web-enabled smartphone (like a BlackBerry, iPhone, etc) you can still access and even download your PC's files with it!  Just think - from this point on, you will NEVER be without access to your computer (or computers)! No matter where you are, all you need to access your computer is a web browser! You could be at the office, at a friends, at a public computer in the library! It's JUST like you're sitting in front of your computer - only you're miles (or thousands of miles) away! You can mouse all over, access your programs, type up documents or e-mails, even browse the web! WHATEVER you can normally do with your PC, you can do it with this - REMOTELY - with nothing more than a web browser! It's the coolest thing ever! OK, I know what you're thinking - this doesn't sound cheap! Well, normally you'd be right, but we made an amazing deal with LapLink and got ya a HUGE discount!
