your email. Take a look below at some freeware I've recently tried, and
a way to get an entire CD full of the best freeware on planet Earth.

Hi CEQ,

No utilities, but it can be done to a certain extent from your browser.
--------------
SnipURL:
If you want a quick way to resolve a SnipURL ID to its underlying URL,
you can do it this way.

http://snipurl.com/resolveurl?id=snipurl_pcworld

where "id=" contains the ID or the NICKNAME of your snipped URL.
--------------
TinyURL:
Goto http://tinyurl.com/preview.php and click on the link in the center
of the page to enable the "preview" cookie.

Note: Not all cookies are evil. Some are good!

Have fun!
