Don't name a freeware that most of us are familiar with like Spybot, Open
Office, ect but something you use whether it be a game, screensaver, utility or
whatever that others may not be aware of.

I have to go with "Screen Saver Control." This is great if you need to start
your screensaver or powerdown your monitor immediately.

Also another small program called "shut down". Just set the timer and your
computer will shut down at that time. great for downloading and defrag.

both can be found at this freeware site under system utilities

My "survival alternative" is InjectURL by Marek Jedlinski from
<http://www.tranglos.com/free/index.html>

When I download a program I usually also save the program web page
that contains a description, often the page I download from (and with
Opera I most often use "Frame - Save as" from the right-click menu).
Then use InjectURL to insert the URL into saved page. Thus I end up
with description page with URL embedded. Makes it easy to see what the
downloaded program is/does - and from where I got it.

InjectURL: Automatically "injects" URL address and last-visited date
into documents downloaded from the Web

This release of the program is frozen, and no longer supported. The
program is useful in its current state, but it is not being developed
and is unlikely to see any more updates.

InjectURL is a simple application designed to do only one task and do
it well: to help you keep a reference to the Web document you have
downloaded to your local computer.

What does it do?
You may find this program helpful if you often download articles from
the Internet (using a Web browser, such as Netscape or MS Internet
Explorer) and sometimes wish to return to online copies of those
documents later, when you may have already deleted or lost the URL
address. The task that InjectURL performs is automatically adding
("injecting") the URLs into HTML and plain-text documents you have
downloaded and saved, using the browser's "Save As..." feature. This
way you can always know where that particular document came from
without having to keep the URLs somewhere else or manually editing
the document.

</quote>

Two minor issues I've experienced with InjectURL:

1) First issue: It does not work in auto-mode with Opera. I solve it
this way: set it to monitor my download directory, copy the URL from
browser after saving the page, then right click the program icon in
task menu and select Inject URL Manually. So if the page was saved
as "somename.htm" and the URL is "http://someplace.com/somename.htm",
when i past the URL in the InjectURL window - it finds and suggests
the saved "somename.htm" page by it self. But sometimes the page name
in the URL does not match the saved file name, if so I simply open the
file dialog in InjectURL and type the first two or three letters of
the saved html file to quickly find it, select it and hit OK. Or - if
you please - name the html page your self when saving, say use same
name as downloaded program name, then copy the url from browser, then
chose Inject URL manually in Inject URL menu, past the URL into
InjectURL window, click browse for file name, type the first
characters of the filename to find it faster, select it, click OK -
OK.

Btw: I try to keep the download directory "tidy", that is simply move
everything to a another "holding" directory from time to time - to
avoid naming conflicts when saving pages and injecting URL. Also
notice that InjectURL can optionally rename the saved file when
Injecting, using the page title as a name, found inside the <TITLE>
</TITLE> tags in the page..

2) Second minor issue: It "crashes" on say 1 out of 25 pages. Probably
since program has not been updates in ages and thus can not
handle/parse some newer kinds of code/scripts. When this happens, the
program hangs during parsing/writing of html file, while html file
grows to several MB very fast - until you shout down the program. Not
a major issue (unless your are low on disk space) since it is always
obvious when this happens (program screen freeze instead of
disappearing after injecting url). What I do: Right click program tab
in taskbar and select close, Windows then pops up the end-it-now
dialog, OK. Delte "mangled" copy of html file and just skip this file
(or add the url to the original saved page "by hand" with text
editor).

Lister <http://www.ghisler.com/lister/>, a file viewer. Great for
viewing textual content of html files, as it strips html tags -
leaving only plain text and URLs (can also view raw source). I have
posted about this before, including some tips/ideas on use. This time,
instead of including previous posts here, I'll serve them to you with
the help of Google:

==================

Right on! I discovered Lister, and am able to call on its service by
entering it in the context menu, by using ContextEdit. Lister will
open *anything* to permit viewing the ascii makeup of such file.
Probably one of my most-appreciated.

Another favorite of mine is: Classic Clip

Available freeware from:
http://www.nakka.com/soft/clcl/download/clcl110_eng.zip

This thingie captures screen shots normally; text, graphics, whatever ...
and
keeps them archived in a folder in the ClassicClip main folder. And, not
just
full window pictures, either. You can highlight any text and capture it
with
CTRL-C, and it also will be placed in the archive folder. There are
other freeware programs available, but this one is far and away the simplest
to use.

Ditto. Have used it for years, although not as a standalone though,
but as an integrated part of Total Commander, a shareware filemanager
by same author. It is not that long ago I became aware he offers
Lister as a standalone freeware app as well.
