New freeware site

[Livewire]

I came across this site from a computer mag

http://www.sysinternals.com/

It's full of unusual and slightly (well, very) geeky freeware. Really
worth a look.


The computer mag highlighted a program called Junction, which works on
NTFS file systems and is similar to a Microsoft command-line tool.

If you have two drives, one of which is near-full, you can't just move
program directories to the other drive and get them to work because of
registry keys etc.

Junction lets you. It acts as a re-direct from the original program
directory location to the new location.


And that's just one of dozens of arcane but usseful tools.

Sorry, should have said "New to Me"

Something like what comes with Zip Drives for moving programs around.

No prob. )

I really like that site 'cause they actually do give you the low down of
whats really going on inside your computer.
