Gizmo of the year - 2001
Some suggestions for indispensable downloads from Karen Blakeman of RBA Information Services:
Zone Alarm from ZoneLabs - personal firewall software. Firewalls are as essential as anti-virus software in blocking nasties and unauthorised access, even
on desk-top PCs with ordinary dial-up connections to the Internet.
Google Toolbar - enables you to Google search the Web and Usenet from your IE toolbar, find related pages, highlight search terms in pages and a lot more.
IE Personalizer - as well changing the "skin" and revolving icons can also change the "branding" that appears in the title bar
of Internet Explorer.
Webwasher - deals with those aggravating animated adverts and pop-up windows.
Cookie Crusher - excellent cookie manager.
