Iconico LocatePC antitheft software: Helps you locate your stolen computer

LocatePC sends you a secret email message from your computer containing vital information that can help you and law enforcement track a stolen computer, and eventually return it to you.

LocatePC is free software, and runs unobtrusively on your computer, with no icons, popups or saved emails. If your computer is stolen then the thief will not even know that LocatePC is running, and as soon as they connect to the internet a secret email is sent to you containing the details that you need to track your hardware.

System requirements:

  • Windows Vista/XP/Me/98
  • POP email account for LocatePC to send you email.
  • LocatePC can only send email if a user is logged in to the PC, and the PC is connected to the internet.
  • LocatePC does not support HTTP proxy servers, mail servers that use SSL or SPA or IMAP (including Gmail and Hotmail), or email accounts that only work when the PC is connected to a specific ISP.

DiskInternals ZIP Repair: Recover and fix damaged zip files

DiskInternals ZIP RepairThis small application is exactly what you need if you have a zip file that shows a corruption error message. It happens from time to time, especially when the file is huge and you spent a lot of time to get it (Murphy’s law?).

Anyway, download this software, install it and run it. It works as a wizard so nothing should be complicated: just select the corrupted zip file, select a name for the recovered one (or use the one the program suggest) and that’s it.

This program recovers everything that is not damaged in the zip file. It’s a very useful option having in mind that a zip file can’t be opened even if only one small file is affected.

System Requirements: Windows 95 - ME/NT4/2000/XP/2003 Server/Vista/2008

PHP guestbook script for free.

I have been busy the last couple of weeks, building a website for a friend. One of the things I had to do was a really simple and plain guestbook that you can adapt to any site. And it all has to be in just one PHP file. The result is here.

With just basic notions of PHP and MySQL, you can have this script running in your website in 5 minutes. The script is very well documented on itself. So if you want to modify it, it will be very easy to do so. 

There’s millions of pages and tutorials about how to create a database in MySQL, so I’ll just give you the table structure this script uses and you will have to create the database and the table. I recommend using PHPMYADMIN for this.

CREATE TABLE comments (gb_name varchar(50),  gb_comment text, gb_ip varchar(20), gb_moderated char(1), gb_datetime datetime, primary key (gb_datetime));

Next, open the script in notepad and locate this lines (should be in lines 22 and 23) 

$link=mysql_connect(”localhost“, “user“,”password“) or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db (”database“) or die(mysql_error());

replace the host, user, password and database name with your own information and that’s it. It should work like this demo.

You can use this script for free in any way you want, modify it all you want, but I’m not responsible of anything you do with it or any problem you may have using it, such as data loss and/or corruption. This script in its original source code only adds to the database, nothing is modified or deleted ever.
If you need a customization of this script, like a captcha, colors, a control panel or anything you may need to include it in your site, please contact me (admin at freewarenation.com) and I will work with you to adapt the script to your needs.
