Ever pulled your hair managing multiple IP addresses ? Ever wished that managing multiple IPs was easier ? If not then you are a lucky guy, please don’t read further… Maybe when after reading this you may change your mind and try NetSetMan. But for those who have really pulled their hair, NetSetMan is the perfect solution.

As per the Website, it is a network settings manager. Its much easier to use than the default TCP/IP properties. The utility is available in 2 versions, one is a non-commercial freeware while the other is a Commercial Pro Version. The basic difference between the two versions is that in the free version you can manage only 6 different network profiles. I know, I know, 6 is not a small figure when you are talking about network profiles. If you are a normal user then the free version is more than enough !!

Are you tired of changing your network configuration on your
laptop or computer every day? Always the same procedure?

On the go: changing…
At home: changing…
In the office: changing…

Then NetSetMan is your solution. It will do the work for you.

Moreover, the website mentions that doing a restart after the settings have been applied is recommended, but truly speaking I have been using this utility since almost a month and have never felt a need to do so.. So its up to you to decide.

Anyway, here are some of the main features:

• Manage IP addresses, subnet mask, default gateways, DNS Server and even Computer Name, Workgroup, Printers, etc. for 6 different profiles.
•  
• Activate the profile in 2 clicks !! (1 for selecting the profile and 1 for activating, that’s it.)

• Rename the tabs for the profiles so that it is easier for you to manage.

• The utility minimizes to the tray and hence is accessible in just a single click.
•  
• Check your current settings by just hovering your mouse over the NetSetMan icon in the system tray.
•  
• The settings are stored in settings.ini file and so no problems when you upgrade or transfer to another version.
•  
• Execute your desired and customized scripts.
•  
• Map Network drives.
•  
• Can be activated using command line parameters.
•  
• Manage Proxy settings for Internet Explorer and Firefox. (PRO version only)
•  
• Manage homepage of your browsers. (PRO version only)

I give a 5 star rating to the utility… What about you ?

Download NetSetMan

So start using NetSetMan and forget the TCP/IP Properties dialog box of Windows !

PS: If you know any other utility better than this, do let others know by leaving a comment.. And you never know, if its real good it may be featured on this blog along with your name. Moreover, do comment if you felt that the utility was useful to you.

Recently while surfing, I came across a real nice small utility which lets you customize the appearance of your windows clock. As per my knowledge, Windows doesn’t let you display seconds in the clock or the current day easily… If you are a real geek then you may have changed the registry and customized the clock as per your need…. But why break your head when you can get it done easily…. !!!

The utility’s name is TClock… It has a bunch of functionalities ranging from customizing your clock display to hiding your Start button !! Its an easy to use utility… You won’t need to refer to the help even if you are a novice.

Let’s take a look at the functionalities…

• Change the font, font color, font size, background color of the dull windows clock.
• Change the position of the clock.
• Customize the format of the clock as per your wish.
• You can set an alarm with the alarm tone you like, no matter in what format the audio is.
• Select a function (from a predefined list) you want to perform when you click on the clock.
• Customize the tooltip text.
• Customize the Start button as well as the Start menu.

Download the TClock from here: Download Link

As per my ‘almost’ daily schedule, I sat in front of my computer to check emails. I successfully signed in my Yahoo! account and as usual the ‘Unread’ count in my Inbox had raised by some 3-4, I don’t remember how many were there yesterday, making a total of 190 (read “just 190″, bcoz  this count was achieved after rigorous inbox cleaning schedule last week)…. Anyway, “most of the time” I try to avoid replying to not so important and not so urgent emails. But today there was no escaping from it. So I quickly clicked on the ‘Reply’ button and the ‘Compose’ window appeared. Slowly and gradually I changed the subject line to some meaningful short sentence instead of the usual ‘Re:’ prefixed sentence.

As I started to type in the message box, my ’sharp eyesight’ found something new on the toolbar. Like a lightning bolt my hand moved from the keyboard to catch hold of the mouse and on the next moment the mouse pointer was on that new and strange icon. The tooltip described it as ‘Stationery’. Without losing much time I pressed ‘PrtScrn’ and here is the result.

Curiosity to new things is in human nature. So out of curiosity I clicked on the icon and a new window popped up out of nowhere. It was a small window compared to the size of a normal browser window and had a very clean look with some links on the left hand side and some small images to its right. I clicked on the links and the images kept on changing. I hovered my mouse pointer over the image and did as per the explanation in the tooltip, ‘Single click to preview. Double click to select.’ I kept on single clicking and the background in my message window kept on changing. So this is something nice. I like to send bright and colourful emails instead of that monotonous white emails.

Finally out of these great collection I selected a nice blue design and happily wrote the reply.

So now itself, open up your Yahoo! account and check this new feature of theirs. Also send some emails bcoz u have a reason to do so !!! And finally say with a bang Y-A-H-O-O !!

PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHENEVER YOU’RE USING A PC AT A PUBLIC PLACE (Like INTERNET CAFES..ETC).
CHECK THE BACK OF THE PC AND SEE IF THE BELOW DEVICE IS THERE… IF SO.. DO NOT USE IT !!!!

New storing device fits at the end of the keyboard cable connecting to the PC specialized to save all typed keys in it…
Mostly could be used in net cafes, exhibitions, hotels and airports therefore be careful especially the people who use the internet in these places to enter their bank accounts online or any other important sites.
After you enter the bank account and leave the PC it will be easy to open your account again as all what you have typed has been saved in the Black device.  
Therefore, you should check the PC for any suspicious piece behind it before using the net in public places for important sites.
Please let all know and educate them against this fraud.
