If you’ve ever used NSLookup from the command-line in Windows you’ll surely understand how much data it is capable of putting at your fingertips. I know some people prefer to take the command-line route (as I normally do), but it can also be nice to have a GUI alternative for those that don’t use it enough to remember the parameters and syntax. The free DNSDataView is the perfect GUI companion to NSLookup.

P2P file-sharing enabler LimeWire finally lost its long-running battle against music-industry heavy hitters on Tuesday.

“As of today, we are required to stop distribution and support of LimeWire’s P2P file-sharing service as a result of a court-ordered injunction,” reads a statement by Lime Company CEO George Searle on the company’s website.

Does this mean the end to P2P?  Is Frostwire next?

This is a clone of the Image Resizer Powertoy for Windows XP — a PowerToy that allows you to right-click on one or more image files in Windows Explorer to resize them. It was created (by me) to extend support to non-XP and 64-bit versions of Windows (including 2000, Vista & 7).

I use this right-click image resize method to quickly and easily resize down large camera images.  Makes it simple to resize before emailing or uploading to a blog.
