This application has been developed solely to provide those that like our service, an alternate method of doing such. This edition also helps to save on my own server costs as it is entirely standalone*, requiring only your own internet connection.

vURL Desktop Edition currently allows you to get and save the source code of any website you fancy with the click of a button, and additionally, see a list of files it currently links to.

As with the online version of the vURL service, this application is and will remain, completely free for both personal and business use.

This can be extremely handy when you want to delete a file/folder, but Windows tells you it can't due to the file/folder being in use by some random process that it never seems to want to name.]]> http://freeware.it-mate.co.uk/?Cat=Internet#169

What does "community managed" mean?, this means YOU have a part to play in what websites are added to, or removed from, the hosts file - effectively allowing you to play a part in protecting others from accessing content that could potentially damage their computers.

Once installed on your computer, Windows performs a query against the websites within it, prior to allowing your computer access to the site/server in question. If found, requests are re-directed to your computers internal IP (Internet Protocol) address.

For detailed information on how hosts file's work, please see the following article.

A HOST'ed computer is a happy computer!

QuaBlocks supports online play, so you can play with up to 4 players online. In the game's options you can change the background and border colours and you can customize controls.

Ed: 2.0 see's major improvement over it's predecessor in terms of both gameplay, and GUI. Whilst still being easy to play, I no longer found myself bored stiff after 30 minutes (didn't have time - I lost after 24 minutes). The author of this program has proven that even the simplest of games, normally reserved for children, can quite easily be just as addictive to the rest of us.

Additional note, this program attempts to connect to the games server when loading, in order to check for new versions. This can be disabled in the games preferences.]]> http://freeware.it-mate.co.uk/?Cat=Games#164

There is also a setup version available (733K) here]]> http://freeware.it-mate.co.uk/?Cat=Games#162 20 levels and many options to choose from.
