A must have for small business, in home, pc techs. I tested 4 separate programs offered on snapfiles against this application and found this one to be far superior. I have an in home pc repair business. This gives me the ability to show my customers their specs before and after the repair. Kudos!

You have two options, English and Chinese. Unless you are English and in China, I wouldn't waste my time downloading this. You need to register with the site, which at the time I tried to register their website would not accept Yahoo/Hotmail or likewise email accounts. It wanted ISP emails. After you register, then it doesn't even recognize your email account. So their website registration is down at the time, and you need to login into the TV Software. I never was able to get the program to run. Kept saying, "player error". Absolutely no support if you are in USA.

POP Peeper

qleft  Personal email secretary!  qright

POP Peeper version 3.0.1
  • Interface: 5
  • Features: 5

Love this program! Its like having a personal email secretary! Love the ability to set color, sound, and unique features to each Email account. When I am away for my desk, I set a specific sound wave to each email account. When I hear the sound, I know to come to my computer to check the message. Its great if your waiting on a very important email, and do not want to waste time checking for it every few minutes. This little Email Secretary, 'Pop Peeper' is feature rich, and a nice little blessing! Special thanks to the developers for allowing it to be freeware!

PopTray version 3.03
  • Interface: 5
  • Features: 4

I used this utility for about 3 years faithfully! I even passed it on to friends. Program worked as it promises and rarely had any bugs or negative issues. However, after using it for several years I hoped the developer would upgrade it once in awhile, maybe add a feature or even clean up the User Interface. If your looking for something basic, small and simple, its great! However, I have moved on to Pop Peeper. Although its a much larger utility. It does add more desirable features, needed when you have multiple pop email accounts being dumped into one utility! Thanks for the Years of Service Pop Tray.

TrueCrypt
  • Freeware
  • Win2000/XP/2003/Vista

qleft  Requires to much instructional reading!  qright

TrueCrypt version 4.3a
  • Interface: 3
  • Features: 1
  • Ease of use: 1
  • Value: 5
  • Overall: 2

This programs was easy to install, however, required too much reading! 'The Wizard' is not easy to understand and requires you to learn and read pages of instructions. I was able to figure out how to encrypt, but was not able to figure out how to disable it, or open the file I created. You have to read through their websites instructions. I don't know about you, but if I have to read through pages of instructions, I lose interest. Ease of Use: -5 Stars. Unless you have the time and energy to learn the software, read help files, I do not recommend. If your going to create a "Wizard" for your software, make it easier to use and understand. Not everyone knows what you mean, when you name key/button. I was excited about the software when I read all the positive comments. My experience was disappointing. :(
