Sketch Studio 2008
June 25, 2008 at 8:04 pm | In Downloads, reviews | Leave a CommentTags: Development, Downloads, software, software-libre
Sketch Studio is a drawing program designed to teach children how to draw on the computer. It has a simple interface, a limited number of brush options and is easy to learn. But just because the brush is limited does not mean you can’t create incredible drawings. The drawings you create can be saved as drawing files (.sketch) or as bitmap files (.bmp, .jpg). Display your drawing as your screen saver. You can use the free Sketch and Smudge Screen Saver to play the drawings created with Sketch Studio. You’ll watch as Sketch and Smudge recreate your drawing. IMPORTANT: You should download and install Sketch Studio before you install the screen saver.
CHM Files & IE7 1.0
June 23, 2008 at 3:28 pm | In Uncategorized | Leave a CommentTags: Development, Downloads, linux, software
So you downloaded a CHM help file but it refuses to open/work properly, you get a message that makes no sense “Navigation to the webpage was canceled”. This is an unfortunate result of a change in behavior that Microsoft made in an effort to plug security holes. Fortunately, the “fix” is pretty simple -: right-mouse-button click on the .chm file, then select ‘Properties’, and under the item that says ‘Security’, click on the ‘Unblock’ option and click ‘OK’. This will confirm to Microsoft that you really wanted to open this file (as if they didn’t already know!). The same procedure can also be used on other files if you get unwanted Security Warnings.

TCDownloadBooster is a download manager/accelerator that can download up to 20 files at once with amazing speed. It supports drag and drop a URL from your browser, or you can type it in yourself. I have a 1.5Mbps satellite connection, and during beta tests, I achieved a download speed of 4.5Mbps while downloading 5 files at once.
