'ToDo Reminder' freeware has had a few more updates and is now at version 1.1.5.4.

Improvements are, among other smaller things, the ability to define text color diferentiating each and every line task, a new preference to define default 'time' to considering when adding new tasks - requested by some users - and a few more things. Note Pane - the one that shows you the note text of each task - was not scrolling correctly and long notes would not show in full, but this is now corrected also.

As always, all freeware can be downloaded from here. Keep sending your suggestions, ideas and... donations

And 'Image Downloader' freeware has been updated again, up to version 1.1.1.4

A few bugs were 'introduced' with last update and there is a new routine to un-escape characters withing the url link shown in the freeware's list, for better clarity.

As always, this freeware is available from the freeware webpage were it - and a lot of other nice utilities - can be freely be downloaded.

And a new update to 'Image Downloader' freeware is available, now with version 1.1.1.2

Last version was giving some error messages, so a few (more like a lot) of changes to the source code were needed and here you have the final product, revised and improved. And, of course, FREE

Just go to the freeware webpage and download this new updated version there. Hey, and check all other FREEware there, if you want!

And as we are at it, just a small notice with a couple of links from 3rd party sites that test and make sure our freeware is secure to install and use. Among those there is the very well known Softpedia.com and also the NewFreeDownloads.com. You can go to either of those and check the full report about this great 'File Renamer' freeware
           

They say, and I'm quoting Softpedia, ... Softpedia guarantees that File Renamer 1.2.1.5 is 100% CLEAN, which means it does not contain any form of malware, including spyware, viruses, trojans and backdoors.
 

'File renamer' freeware continues being updated thanks to the suggestions and alerts from users, and is now version 1.2.1.5

A few minor bugs were corrected, the interface default size got a little larger and, among other things, a new icon is being used - other one was quite old, time for a change

This freeware has been around for more than 10 years now, always evolving, always changing acording to user's requests and suggestions, and with me behind it all the time.

So.. just download it from the freeware page as usual and check for yourself what may well be one of the best File Renamer's around - hey.. again not my words, just quoting users..

'Mini Calculator' has been updated to version 1.0.4.5.

This small freeware is a very unobtrusive calculator for your desktop. This time a bug has crept in and, thanks to Johnny A. that told me about it, it was immediately corrected. Simple really, but it was making the freeware unusable as the black backgroud circle was hiding the data window and preventing users from seeing the numbers displayed at all!

Download this new version, available for download for FREE - as always has been and always will be - from the freeware webpage.

'ToDo Reminder' freeware has been updated to version 1.1.5.0.

Again, it has grown a few versions already since last posting here, same reasons as bellow.. I mean, free time is not much and software gets updated but not annouced in the blog - hey, it means you must check more often for updates to the software, doesn't it?

I use this one all the time, so have been making some small changes, correcting bugs, you know.. making it better for everyone, including me!

And, as always, all new versions can be freely downloaded from here. It's FREE, folks! So send me your suggestions, ideas and... donations

Finally a new update to this freeware is available. It was still working ok with older IE versions, but stoped working a while back with new ones, as it seems.. Anyway, to cut a long story short, this new version can search and download pics as it is suposed to do - correctly - using all new versions of software and.. etc..

Just go to the freeware webpage and download this new updated version.

As stated bellow, a new update to 'Web Downloader' freeware is available, with version 1.1.1.0.

This version is fully Win7 (32 and 64bit) compatible. As the latest versions of Windows have UAC - user account control - that is supposed to protect users from tampering, among other stuff, with the Registry, and as this freeware is able to download anything and accepts links directly from Internet Explorer by draging and droping on it's window, I had to make some changes, namelly to let WebDownloader register itself as a 'DropTarget' in Windows Registry, for it to be able to accept the above mentioned drag and drop of links.

As it is, the first time you run the software, it will ask you to let it make a small adition to your Registry. Nothing serious, but you might get scared by Windows asking you to allow it to do the change right afterwards... No worries though, as it just adds a small key in the 'DragDrop' key of Internet Explorer.

If you don't really want to drag and drop links from IE directly to WebDownloader, just cancel it and everything else on my freeware will still work as it should, including the 'monitor the clipboard' thing

Still, if you have any doubts or issues about this, just email me, ok?
