Most of these programs were originally written to meet my own needs. Being a software developer, I've had the luxury of making them do exactly what I wanted, but over the years, I have received good input from others as well. As of February 2008, all programs are now freeware, meaning that you no longer have to register them. I hope you enjoy and benefit from using the programs.

Free updated versions will be posted here as they become available. If you wish to continue using the current version, you may receive a complimentary registration key by sending me a support e-mail from the Help/About menu option. 

 
 
Click for more info on i-netLock+ One heck of a Swiss army knife for slicing and dicing the Internet. Foremost, it's a password manager with IE add-on to automatically log on, log off, fill out forms and navigate via really useful shortcuts like paging. But it also monitors network traffic, locks/unlocks NICs, shreds files, . . .
 
Click for more info on winButler Your own butler to make it easy on yourself while working on Windows. Create chores for him to check e-mail, open up a folder, surf to a web page, and more. And yeah, integrates with i-netLock+ to logon to sites.
 
Click for more info on i-paletteBuilder A color picker and then some. If you like to play around with colors for your own web pages, then you'll enjoy this utility.
 
Click for more info on i-myzon If you shop at Amazon and like to read people's reviews, then this is the civilized way to do it. Without the clutter and distractions of the mall!
 
Click for more info on aMiner If you require comprehensive web data such as rankings, traffic stats, url info, etc., you can mine the vast database maintained by Amazon's Alexa web services with aMiner.
 
Click for more info on myWMP If you are like me with lots of CDs, you've already ripped them into audio files so that you can play them on your digital devices. WMP is a great player but it lacks a few essential features; try myWMP, it's absolutely free for you to keep and enjoy. 
 
 

i-netLock+

 
Download inetLock.msi (MS Installer)  
Download inetLock.zip

i-netLock+ is a multi-function Internet utility program that allows you to completely and securely lock your machine against all Internet traffic. Of course, there are firewalls and other security programs that give you lots of features and they can meet sophisticated needs. But there are times when you simply want to shut down the gate to the outside world completely so that nothing can get into and out of your PC. This is essential if you have the "always-on" cable or DSL connection.

However, when you are surfing the net, you want to know what's happening. i-netLock+ displays (graphically and numerically) both inbound and outbound traffic so that you can see activity with just a glance. More importantly, you want to surf safely and securely, so the program encrypts all your user IDs and passwords, and automates the login (and log-off) process at your favorite web sites. And when shopping online, it will fill out the order form with your address and credit card data. All you need to remember is just one master keyword instead of juggling multiple lists and notes that can be stolen or lost. Built-in generator can create strong, extremely hard-to-guess strings for user names or passwords. Latest version includes important alerts for potential pharming attacks that can lead you to rogue sites. These days on the Internet, you simply cannot afford to be casual in your online transactions. Click the picture below for more details.

After registering, you will be able to store the entire program on a portable USB drive and run it from any other Windows machine. All of your private data can reside on the device, safe and sound.

Try it today and soon, you won't surf without it.
Runs on Windows 2000, XP and Vista.
On Vista, you must either use Run-as-administrator when activating
i-netLock+ or simply turn off User Account Control (UAC) for best experience.

i-paletteBuilder

 

Download ipaletteBuilder.msi (MS Installer)

 

Download ipaletteBuilder.zip

 

i-paletteBuilder is a Windows program that allows you to experiment with various color combinations and build your own palettes. It is intended for the web page developer who wants a super efficient (that is, quick and easy) way to pick and select colors from the spectrum, adjust parameters and see them in a test page as quickly as possible.

You can, with just a click of the mouse, select a color, assign it to a web box or the text inside a box, copy it as RGB string and even preview it in your browser. Often, you would like to see several shades or gradients of the selected color and i-paletteBuilder automatically displays 3 shades, whose gradations you can adjust using a slider control.

Runs on all Windows platforms.
