The Bottom Line There are a lot of free good programs available but becareful-there are those out there who would like to messup your computer
10+Free programs from Testing and Setting up monitors to a Word Processor. Monitor test program When I started working on Color Tv's , I had to use a piece of test equipment to set up all the peramators of a color TV. This display's the same thing I used over last 40 years . With this program you can test how the screen looks. From straight lines to brightness and even helps setup the color for best viewing. You can also use it to check how good a LCD monitor is-from dead pixels to setting brightness/contrast. http://www.construnet.hu/nokia/Monitors/TEST/monitor_test.html Here I review a 19" CRT monitor and use the program to test and setup. I also explain the procedures for doing so. http://www.epinions.com/content_221987180164 FreshDevices There are actually 4 programs and they are free. No advertisments. You do have to register. The one I use is Fresh Diagnose which gives me Information of what is on my systems. From the software to all hardware. It also will benchmark almost all hardware on the system. http://www.freshdevices.com/ AVG Anti-virus I have used this anti-virus since about 2000. It is as good if not better than any you can buy, plus it's free. Like the ones you can buy it is certified by the same labs they are. http://www.grisoft.com Anti-Spy Now for this I use 3. Windows Defender(beta and free at this time) auto runs with windows. SpyBot search & destroy, I run once a week and Ad-Aware SE Personal, this I run every day. What one misses others get.

Look at my computer screen and see what the weather is outside-temp-humidity and weather forcast for the next few days. http://tropicdesigns.net/weatherpulse.php Word Processor Wordpad in all versions of Windows is a little primative. Somebody else also thought so. He/she wrote this based on that engine but added a few nice touches. http://www.jarte.com/ Now all 3 of my computers always have these installed as I and my granddaughters find them useful. There are many free programs out there all you have to do is look for them. |
