Free Partition Program

February 21st, 2009

Today I came across a free partition editor called GParted, it a Linux based program, which is about 30MB.

You run the program from a bootable Live CD, so just download, burn the ISO and start the machine with the CD in. Easy. This also means you don’t need to install any software.

This website offers a vast amount of links, and information to free software, from virus scanner, multimedia to photo editing, its simple to navigate around and I love it to bits. So far I haven’t found the time to browse through it yet, but as time goes buy, I will update my experience of some the software on here.

ohh..and it also has some guides on there as well. Neat.

Clean your PC

February 12th, 2009

So today and the other day, I got 3 people to install CCleaner, I have been using this for a while, and think for most people this is excellent. It will delete all unnecessary files, and much more. One guy got back 4GB of space!

I would also note, if you don’t exclude any cookies, you saved passwords will be lost. for example your Facebook login, so you don’t have to type in the password every two minutes. OK, every minute then.

Also the same company make two other cool pieces of software as well called Defraggler, which is a tool to defrag your hard drive, which sometimes can improve you speed of the computer, and also they make a piece of software called Recuva, which i have not used unlike the other two, but this can recovery deleted files from you computer!

Anyway give it a go.
