Great thread. Would it be possible to put star ratings for each bit of software as a quick guide on the index post so we know if the apps are any good?
I just wanted to let those who like and use (or used to use) Peerguardian know that development has started up again and that there now is a new version of the program available (free), which is called "Peerblock."
Peerblock is based on the original PG code and Peerblock looks just like Peerguardian (and uses the same lists), except it is being actively developed (with frequent application updates) and, most importantly, it has signed drivers. It is completely compatible with Windows 7 x64 without any workarounds required. In short, for those who like Peerguardian, this is a long overdue dream come true.
Check it out here.
(Btw, the latest interim release is completely stable on my Windows 7 x64 rig.)
Some alternatives to windows explorer:
UltraExplorer: Mustangpeak.net - Delphi Components
NexusFile: xiles.net - programs
CubicExplorer: Cubic Reality Software
Swarfega's fine suggestions made me notice the absence of xplorer² (free version) from this list, file manager, dual pane, tabs, viewer, vertical or horizontal panes, single (tracking tree) and god knows what other goodies.
Whilst I love Win7's Explorer I still can't live without xplorer² - elegant, traditional, easy to manipulate files.
hmm thats the lite version. The installer mentions 64-bit but I think thats only available for the retail version which is $29.99.
32 bit version (free) is working good in 64bit windows. I have just downloaded and installed. Really very interesting. I have also downloaded the 64bit TRIAL version and installed in parallel but I don't feel any difference.
Worth a trial.
