Release 2.2
As many of you, I am using quite a few of the Sysinternals utilities. These utilities are very helpful and useful freeware tools programmed by Mark Russinovich and Bryce Cogswell. The tools aim at Windows file, disk, networking, security and process tasks and are well known to a broad community. Unfortunately none of the tools comes with a setup routine, you need to extract the files yourself and create your icons and start menu entries manually. Sysinternals was acquired by Mircosoft in July, 2006. I have collected my personal "most useful" selection of those utilities for Windows and created a setup routine so you can conveniently install them on your system. This package is now called "Sysinternals Toolbox" and can only be obtained here at Lewe.com (Downloads section). The single Sysinternals Tools included in the package are unaltered. Note: The Sysinternals developers encourage you to visit their website as well to get all their tools there. Release 2.2 of this package includes these updates: - AutoRuns 9.35 - ProcessMonitor 2.01 - ZoomIt 2.11 Cost: Free Sysinternals Homesite: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/default.mspx |

Version 3.2.001 is now available. The bugfix release fixes two functional issues that were reported besides of some more code streamlining. The major release 3.2 enhances security and comes with the following great new features:
- Regions
TeamCal Pro now support several base calendars organized by regions. You can create individual regions and a base calendar template for each of them. The administrator can set a default region to be used for the calendar display. Each user can overwrite this by his own default region. Also, in the calendar display you can switch between regions. - Absence access for managers only
Absence types can now be marked as "manager only". Only managers can set/unset these absences for themselves and their team members. Team members can still see them in their calendar but the check boxes are disabled. - Minimum Present, Maximum Absent Threshold
A minimum present and maximum absent value can be set per group. An addl. switch will cause TeamCal Pro to check these values when group members request absences. In case the configured thresholds would be breached the request is declined. - Declination Period
The declination management now offers to set a period in which no abesences are allowed. Regular members will receive a declination error if their request lies in that period. - Personal Day Notes for Managers Only
Personal day notes can now be hidden from regular users and made available only for managers, directors and administrators. This feature is useful if you want to use the day notes for management purposes only. The 3.2 release is up and running in the demo. Go ahead and check it out.

It's out there, and it's good. You just need to find it.
I was always interested in free software - you long time visitors of Lewe.com know that already. And I mean "free software" and not only "free downloads" (of software you need to purchase anyways). The palette of free software had quite an increase over the last years. From Anti-Virus software, firewalls and system utilities to complete office suites - the variety of free applications for you PC seems endless. And best of all, most of the free tools can easily compete against their expensive brothers and sisters. However, finding these free products is still a little cumbersome. I recently joined an independent group of editors, all PC professionals, that search, test and publish reviews of free software for the public. We are meanwhile maintaining more than 135 categories of free tools, all amazing products that are fit to serve your system, networking or application needs for free. We are publishing our work at http://www.techsupportalert.com. Check it out, surf around and read about and profit from hundreds of free software products. Here is a small selection of what you will find there: PC Cleanup & Tuning, Desktop & GUI Enhancements, Disk & File Utilities, Home/Office & Productivity, Image Viewing & Editing, Internet & Email, Multmedia, Reference & Cataloging, Networking Tools, Resource and Perfomance Info, Security, System Accessories. |

I had the idea of an online version of Measure for quite a while now. I can finally present now the first release of my conversion tool right here on Lewe.com.
I hope that the simple and friendly design finds your liking. Also you can switch between English and German. Most of the unit names are linked to a corresponding page at Wikipedia where you may read more details about it. Enjoy webMeasure: http://www.lewe.com/measure |
