I've been programming for personal purposes since 1986. At that time I autodidactically began learning BASIC with the help of two books. I wrote the first "programs" on paper because I didn't own a computer back then. Only 1989 I bought my first computer - a ZX Spectrum. I developed in Z80 assembler for the first time. Until then I only had the opportunity in informatics lessons at school to use a KC-85/3. From 1988 I began using Turbo Pascal as well. The needed computers were provided during my study: KC-85/3, KC-87 and PC 1715. I bought my first "real" PC in 1991: a 386 SX/20 with 4 MB RAM. I wrote many small applications around the operating system (MS-DOS 6.2) and the graphics card in Turbo Pascal and Assembler with it. I began programming Windows (WfW 3.11) in 1995 - this time in Visual Basic 3.0 and Turbo Pascal for Windows. After 1998 under Windows 98. Especially with Delphi and Visual Basic 6.0. Beginning 2006 with Visual Basic 2005 (.NET Framework 2.0) and Turbo Delphi as well.
Subsequently I provide a small collection of applications as freeware for common usage. I can provide the source code as well, if needed. All programs are without an installer. Just download and unpack them into an empty directory (I recommend WinRAR or 7-Zip, if you don't want to pay anything). I cannot be held responsible for any damage while using the applications. The files are free of viruses or trojans and I use them all for personal needs.
There seems to be a big interest in my NTFS tools. That's why I placed the Delphi sources here. Have fun.

DuamonXP In early versions of GetRight there was a little traffic display in the lower right corner. I converted this display into a separate application. The small windows can be moved freely on the desktop and is always shown in foreground. This version of the program only supports dial-up adapters (modem, ISDN). |

Ethermon This application monitors every network traffic and shows it in the same manner as DuamonXP. Ethermon uses the funktion GetIfTable from iphlpapi.dll. |

MELE Abbreviation for McAfee Exclusion List Editor. There is a built-in option in VirusScan 9.0 and 10.0 to exclude several files and directories from being scanned by the on-access scanner. But there is no GUI from McAfee. My program closes this gap.

SudokuSolver The Sudoku wave gripped germany in 2005 too. Instead of solving the many puzzles with the troublesome pen algorithm I had more fun in writing a programmatical solution aid. Thus the Sudoku phenomenon was history for me.

WinEnumPS Reading the book "Windows Internals" by Mark Russinovich and David Solomon inspired me, to explore the virtual address space of user processes using the VirtualQueryEx function. WinEnumPS lists all processes and the DLLs and memory mapped files mapped into their address space. You can display the maximum available virtual memory for a process (for instance DLLs that have their preferred base address at 10000000h, are responsible for the fact that only 1200 MB contiguous memory can be allocated by VirtualAlloc in Delphi). The memory allocation can be shown as a graphic. Additionally every memory range of all processes can be viewed in detail. The SeDebugPrivilege is requested to accomplish that.

WhoIsIt WhoIsIt serves the purpose to learn names of persons. In the program directory of whoisit.exe there has to be a file named list.txt with the names and picture files in the following structure: "name;file_name_including_path". A status file is saved in the AppData directory of the user.

Cache Manager Allows access to the content, cookies and history entries of the index.dat. The cache entries can be deleted indvidually or alltogeter. The functions FindFirstUrlCacheEntry and FindNextUrlCacheEntry as well as DeleteUrlCacheEntry from wininet.dll are used.

HDView Works similarly like Diskview from www.sysinternals.com with the difference, that the exact position of system files (like $MFT or $Secure and so on) and their attributes on NTFS volumes is displayed as well. The application uses the DeviceIoControl functions FSCTL_GET_NTFS_VOLUME_DATA, FSCTL_GET_NTFS_FILE_RECORD and FSCTL_GET_VOLUME_BITMAP. I recommend the free defragmenter JKDefrag to clean up the mess.

Clonetab There is no option in Internet Explorer 7.0 to create a duplicate of the currently open tab. That's why I wrote a browser extension that implements an additional menu entry under "Tools" . To install the extension copy the file clonetab.exe from the archive into the directory "C:\program files\Internet Explorer\Exec". After that the extension as to be registered by executing the _install_en.reg. The following entries are made:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Extensions\{1D32B349-02E3-47c4-8A17-59FE88810590}]

NTFSTree Lists all file and directory objects of a NTFS volume and adds up the file sizes for the directory including all files and subdirectories. Thanks to the direct access to the MFT this operation is very fast. The file sizes listed in the MFT and the actually used clusters for the attributes and streams of a file are shown. The sizes of the hidden NTFS system files are displayed as well. Hint: If files are shown multiple times, this is no bug. NTFS sometimes creates several file entries with a part of the entire amount for one single file.

CleanOutlookCache It happens occasionally that you are unable to open or save attachments in Outlook. The reason for that is, that the OLK folder, which Outlook is using to store temporary files, contains too many files. With this program you can empty the cache.
