Here’s a great download for all you monitor freaks. If you’re the type that must have meters for everything trackable, NetStat Live is just for you.
Sure beats the default task manager stats you have built into Windows. NetStat Live is a small, easy to use TCP/IP protocol monitor which can be used to see your exact throughput on both incoming and outgoing data, whether you’re using a modem, cable modem, DSL, or even local network.
I love this app as it has a very small footprint and will not bogg down your computer.

Finally, I’ve downgraded to XP from the preinstalled Vista on my notebook. Usability is crap as most of the softwares I use are not compatible with Vista. Plus it takes up resources the size of an elephant dung.
Are you using Vista yourself? How is it treating you? Tell me about it!

Yes I’m currently using 2 Vistas … one of which is good and the other one sucks so much I’m thinking of downgrading.
The one I love is my Garmin eTrex Vista GPS receiver. This vista was indispensable during my Europe trip last year. I’ll be so lost without it.
Of lately, I’ve been using a lot of it’s built in electronic compass. It accurately shows me where I’m heading and more importantly where a particular house door is facing. You see, I’ve been house hunting for myself and my uncle.
Another feature I used is the barometric altimeter. Since I’ve been checking out houses near the beach … you need to have a home with at least 15meters elevation above sea level … just to be safe.
This Vista is always with me when I’m deep in the jungle … just in case I don’t wanna wait for the stars to tell which way is north.

If you think that you have total control of autostart processes with “msconfig”, you are dead wrong. You may do it via regedit if you know all the keys. There are more ways which you don’t even know spyware can attach themselves and make it almost impossible to remove. This is also a great app for optimizing your PC.

I presented this last night on myDEFCON #17 at 1st Floor, Northam Beach Cafe, Penang. During the past meetings, we’ve discussed and explored the art of wireless sniffing and man in the middle attacks. This is my FREE solution to guard against those attacks.
Packets shouldn’t be travelling unencrypted over the network, especially over WiFi. You can secure yourself from sniffing by using this solution or VPN.
