| Note: Both the "Loose Leaf Log Manager" and "1769 Bible" are setup.exe files which I compressed into .zip files since some versions of Netscape Navigator creates an entry in your registry which does not allow Internet Explorer to download .exe files. So to keep the frustration to a minimum, blah, blah, blah. |

Final Word |
| A Word 97 document that comes with a simple encryption macro that scrambles the contents of the document. Can be password protected. Use a specific phrase as a 'key' to scramble the document and use the exact same key to unscramble it. Use the 'Save As...' feature to save each document in order to use it over and over. A couple bugs fixed in April 2004. If the menu item "Personal" does not show, make sure that you have macros enabled and then re-open the document. |

1769 King James Bible |
| File size: 1.53 MB.
Besides the 1611, still believed to be one of the most accurate translations of the Hebrew
and Greek texts that exist today. Purists who want the least amount of human error involved
in their search for God's truth insist on versions prior to the 1800's.
Comes with a newer version of the FileSearcher which is an ideal application for use with such a large text as the bible. In this package it has been renamed as "BibleSearcher" and has been upgraded (as has the FileSearcher). |
|
| Originally, I downloaded this version which was purported to be the original 1611 King James translation of the bible. Evidently this is NOT the original 1611 version, but rather the 1769 translation, which by most standards is probably the closest to the 1611 while still being "reader friendly" (since 1611 is written in "ye olde English"). Though I haven't read the results of comparisons being done between the 1769 and the 1611, I understand that the text maintains most of its integrity up to the 1800's. To date, I know of no 1611 that is free for download, only for sale. This version, the 1769, is probably the closest version to the 1611 that you will find for free. If you're interested in purchasing the 1611 version, go to: greatsite.com. |

FileSearcher |
See Screenshot below |
|
| I have officially moved this to the boneyard. This link will take you to the FileSearcher II utility since F.S. II isn't impeded by long file names and it is more functional. It's just as easy to use but covers way more ground with respect to search capabilities. |

FileSearcher IINew |
![](javascript:showPic("graphics/fs_ui.gif", 663, 520)) |
|
| The incorrect version was posted here for a long time that had a bug when unable to open a file. Now instead of notifying you at each file, it simply adds up the files and shows you one error instead of many. Sorry for the mistake. |
| File size: 63.9 KB. For those of you who need to search more than just a directory for contents of a file. This one searches subdirectories too. Double click the file name returned by the search to open the file. A real time saver. |
| NOTE: Not designed for searching multiple drives. |

![](javascript:showPic("graphics/pinger.jpg", 270,353)) |
|
| File size: 59.5 KB. Pings the internet randomly between selected minutes. For instance if you select 2 for Min and 6 for Max, then it would ping at random intervals between 2 and 6 minutes. By default it pings between 1 and 3 minutes which I have found to be the best intervals. I have used this program for several years, from Windows 95 to XP. If you lose your connection to the internet for any reason, you need to close the program and restart it if you re-connect. I have even let it ping while downloading programs and it doesn't corrupt the download; although, I think it is wiser to stop the program while downloading. Once connected to the web, start 'Stay Online,' click 'Start Auto' and it will do the rest. Click 'OK' to send it to the system tray. Click 'Ping' to send out a single ping to see how the program notifies you that it is pinging. Right click the icon in the tray to show. |

Keep On Top |
![](javascript:showPic("graphics/ui_keepontop.gif", 540, 225)) |
|
| File size: 26.8 KB. Have you ever wanted to keep one window on top while you typed on a document beneath? This simple little program allows you to keep any window on top of all the rest so you can type on the window beneath while being able to refer to the window on top. I don't know why I didn't think of this sooner, but now that I have it, I love it! I hope it proves as useful for you as it finally has for me. I just upgraded this today, March 9, 2005 so that a list of windows that are opened are provided for you. If your open windows change, you must restart 'Keep On Top.' Then, all you have to do is pick an open window and click 'Keep On Top.' If you exit the program, the window will be restored automatically. |

Alarm Clock |
![](javascript:showPic("graphics/ui_alarm.gif", 402, 230)) |
|
| File size: 61 KB. Upgraded. Nothing fancy. Alarm clock hides in the system tray until it goes off. Keeps time if alarm is not set, otherwise displays alarm time. Newer version accepts messages as part of the alarm and hides or displays the buttons for aesthetic purposes. New version also sounds off as if a telephone were ringing per user request. |

Web Page Checker |
![](javascript:showPic("graphics/ui_wpc.gif", 600, 425)) |
|
| File size: 58 KB. Web Page Checker scans HTML pages for errors by counting and comparing the tags. It also checks for broken tags (tags that are missing brackets, e.g. <tag ) and lists broken tags with the tag number. Even if you use an HTML Editor, the quantity of starting and ending tags can be uneven. This type of error can show up intermittently and might only show up in certain browsers. |

| File size: 32 KB. Ever wonder how much you weigh in Stones? Just a simple converter that converts acres into square feet, feet into meters and parsecs into light years (to name but a few). File size is only 57KB. This is meant to be more of a novelty than a serious converter. Not a lot of thought or time went into this project so don't expect much. |

Mileages |
![](javascript:showPic("graphics/ui_mileages.gif", 400, 359)) |
|
| File size 44 KB. A mileage chart for 69 major cities. Mileages gathered from several sources and averaged so distances probably have a correction factor of about 2-3%. No ammenities... just mileage... therefore a small file size, hence a fast loader [the way I like my apps]. |

| Inno Setup Utility |
| For you programmers out there who need a robust utility that not only creates setup programs, but also provides the powerful use of script through a third party add-in enabling you to thoroughly customize your setup programs. Probably one of the most popular setup utilities. |
|
| Enzip: file compression tool. |
| Extracts compressed (.zip) files and compresses files creating .zip files |
| Another utility that is not only free but is as good or better than compression utilities that cost money. Why pay for Microsoft's WinZip which should be free just as Internet Explorer is free. Hmmm... do you think there may be ulterior motives involved? Naw, of course not, but you'd be crazy to purchase an overpriced utility that is no better than a free one. |

|
| I understand DOT changed the guidelines regarding logbooks and allowable hours. Since I no longer drive, I don't have insights into how this database should be revised. So if I receive enough feedback indicating an interest, I'll attempt to update the thing so it is current with DOT standards. Otherwise... |

| "logbook.zip" file size: 536 KB. Installed: 593 KB. This I call the "Loose Leaf Log Manager." When I was driving I found myself spending too much time gleaning driving hours so I decided to develop this application which, after many hours of development, ended up being a database. |
