This is a great piece of freeware. I like it for a couple reasons. It sits on the desktop ready to use. (Needs no install.) It quickly gives you a nice peek via bars as well as showing actual folder sizes. The largest ones show up at the top of the screen. Very useful to find where all that hard drive space is going! Very easy to use. You can look at the whole hard drive, or any folder you choose. Not much I can add that others haven't said. Just give it a try, Its a keeper!

This is a great piece of software for those who need to resize a partition newly cloned hard drive with the O/S in place. Works as expected. I had no data loss. Does not allow a "Merge" but for a free program it is very good. This is not a program that I would leave on a PC for a customer. IMHO once the partitions are set up, if you are using any kind of image program, they need to be left alone. When cloning a new large hard drive, I find that I do need to go back and adjust the partition sizes. This one will also allow you to HIDE a partition. So you can image the drive to your last partition then HIDE that partition. Hidden partitions can be seen from a bootable linux disk for restore purposes. See my review of Macrium Free.

Nice program for cleaning up that unwanted junk. Like it says. Does what is says it should do. I am always leery of free registry cleaners. Some are a little too aggressive. But so far so good on this one. I've used it on Win_98 and Win_XP both. CCleaner came recommended to me by a PC service tech. So I thought, "must be good!". I love it!

I had not tried any kind of scheduler before. I'm sure I have not used all of the features available. I simply needed a way to throw up a post-it onto my screen to remind me to make phone calls etc. at certain times. It works great. And the price is right! I am about to try his Beta version, which the author says is much improved. Can it get any better than this, for free?
