DriveCryp Plus Pack
$124.95 - SecurStar GmbH

DriveCrypt Plus Pack (DCPP) is a Full disk encryption software package which encrypts the operating system, and
allows pre-boot authentication. The user can enter a password on computer start up, before the operating system
boots up. DCPP is the only software on the market abel to hide the entire operating system inside another operating
system. This is especially usefull if you are forced to reveal the password to an attacker. In this case he will only see
prelared data. DCPP is the fastest and most feature-rich real-time encryption system available, Special care has
been taken to render all cryptographic parts as invisible & transparent as possible. DriveCrypt Plus Pack provides
true real-time "on the fly" 256-bit disk encryption. Providing advanced FDE (Full disk encryption) as opposed to
VDE (Virtual disk encryption) or "container" encryption. DCPP allows you to secure your disk(s) (including
removable media) with a powerful and proven encryption algorithm (AES-256) at the sector level, ensuring that only
authorized users may access it. The encryption algorithm used by DCPP is a trusted, validated algorithm chosen by
the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and slated to be the cryptographic standard for years to
come. AES-256 is a FIPS-approved symmetric encryption algorithm that may be used by U.S. Government
organizations (and others) to protect sensitive information. DCPP is automatic and completely transparent to the
user. Not only does this decrease user involvement and training requirements, but also it creates the foundation for
enforceable security. The careful integration of boot protection and automatic encryption provides a high degree of
security with minimal impact on users. Boot protection prevents subversion of the operating system (via floppy boot-
up, for example) or the introduction of rogue programs while sector by sector encryption makes it impossible to copy
individual files for brute force attacks.

Scotts Windows Startup Program Manager
$0 - SB-Software

Scott's Windows Startup Program manager is a utility designed to let you manage the programs that automatically start when your Windows PC boots up. These programs are generally stored in the windows registry, and are difficult to edit, unless you are familiar with how the windows registry works. This software is designed to be a much easier interface to let you add, remove, and edit items from the startup list. This program is free for non-commercial use, and has no expirations, time limits, disabled features, adware, spyware, or any other junk that will keep you from using it. So why do you need to edit the windows startup programs? Well, there are several reasons. The first is that some program you installed put something annoying in there that you don't want. For example, maybe your digital camera installs a "helpful tool" that automatically pops up every time you boot and asks you if you want to update your software to the latest version. A second situation is that maybe you've been the victim of an adware or spyware attack. The adware programs often place themselves in the windows startup settings so that their adware program gets loaded each time. So you go in, find something that doesn't belong, and nuke it. Finally, there's one other situation I can think of where you might find this software useful -- let's say you actually *want* something loaded at startup (maybe a tool you find useful...), then you can use this software to add the thing you want to the list. You *could* do all of this with a registry editor like regedit, but using this tool is so much easier! ... and it's *free*

SpyCatcher
$29.95 - Tenebril Inc.

SpyCatcher is an advanced antispyware tool. It detects thousands of spyware, adware, Trojans and other threats, and SpyCatcher updates automatically to provide state-of-the-art protection. SpyCatcher is the only anti-spyware product with a Reinstall Shield to defend against aggressive spyware programs which silently reinstall after deletion. SpyCatcher's Protector watches your PC for running spyware and alerts you before new spyware is installed. The Protector also blocks ?phishing? scams which try to dupe you into entering your credit card information into false Web sites, typically posing as banks. Unlike other anti-phishing tools which rely on inefficient and inaccurate ?blacklists? of spoof sites, SpyCatcher?s Protector uses patent-pending technology to compare the site you are visiting to the true bank?s Web site in real-time, and warns you if the visited site appears to be illegitimate before your financial and personal privacy is compromised. Also unique to SpyCatcher is the Parachute feature, which automatically detects advanced spyware that installs itself at continually higher levels in the boot process of your PC, allowing the programs to watch you even when you aren?t surfing the Web. When such activity is detected, SpyCatcher?s Parachute reboots the PC in ?Safe? mode, deletes whatever spyware it has found and then reboots the computer again normally. The Scheduler allows you to automatically run sweeps when you?re away and includes a huge online library for researching a program?s threat, its infection methods and various useful statistics. The Detective feature lets you see and easily remove all the unwanted hidden programs on your PC. SpyCatcher even disguises disabled adware as ?active? to trick some ad-dependent software into running, though its threat has been eliminated. SpyCatcher is an intuitive and powerful way to protect your PC from the many malicious programs that bypass anti-virus software and firewalls - don't go online without it
