Internet Explorer 11 will be released sometime this fall – but what if you don’t want users to automatically upgrade? It is always better if you get the chance to test new versions of IE with your most heavily used websites – that way you don’t get hit with tons of support calls when it […]
Over a year ago we came out with a utility to burn files from the command line. It was a little short on features, so this week we took some time and beefed it up. Here are the new options: -You can eject the drive -You can erase disks -You can set the label when […]

In July of 2012, Andrew asked us a question: “Hi Steve. I have been looking for a really simple utility. I am always on the phone with users, and sometimes it takes forever to walk them through and have them find their IP address or host name. I remember your post about BGInfo, but that […]
I came across a tool this week. It is called “Network Stuff” It is a tiny little app, but has a bunch of features that could be helpful when trying to diagnose network issues. My favorite part is the status window. The TCP/UDP options give you a quick view of the ports owned by applications: […]
