Fping is a simple ping program, intended to be used instead of the standard ping program that comes with windows. It was first made to ping faster than once every second. Options have been added since then and fping is now a very handy tool.
Performance Pinging, a tool for testing availability, response times and performance using ICMP. Writes data to a text file for later interpretation with e.g. Excel.
MultiPing Grapher is a further development of Perfping with the ability to graph up to 10 different ICMP results.
Interface Traffic Indicator, a graph utility to measure incoming and outgoing traffic on an interface in bits/sec, bytes/sec or utilization. Works on all SNMP-capable interfaces (computers, NICs, switches, routers, etc) with adjustable poll interval.

How does it work and what does it do?
Simply enter the IP address of your switch and its SNMP read community in the
fields and press the Retrieve Table button to get the list. If it fails you will
be told.
Fdbget.exe is a little tool to retrieve entries from the forwarding database
of switches. It gives you a table of MAC to interface number. If you are
looking for a specific MAC on a switch then simply enter the MAC or part of it
into the search field (without regular expressions).
The table results and search results are exported to separate files.

How does it work and what does it do?
Generate a file with a list of devices that you want to monitor. Each line
in that file must follow the format given in the example file '
example_devices.txt':
;;;;.
Do not use more than 10 lines.
Start MIW and open your device file. You will see that a number of graphs
have changed their colour, they are now activated with your information.
Click on 'Start polling' to start the monitoring. The
Options
There are two places to change options: either by clicking on 'Show more'
which expands the GUI to show polling intervall and other options or you
select ToolsOptions from the menu to change graph behaviour.
All of the options are self explanatory like 'stay on top' and polling intervall.
If not, just try them out.

What does it do and how does it work?
If you have problems with a service that does not start automatically after
a reboot because needed resources are not online yet, this software fixes
just this problem.
The name of this program is a little bit misleading but I could not come up
with something better. "Delayed service starter" would describe it better.
The ServiceWatchdog is started automatically after a reboot. After a predefined
time interval, this service tries to start a defined service. It will try to
start the service twice and then it gives up. No logs, event messages or other
information is written.
Installation
1. Install the service with the command "servicewatchdog /install"
Uninstall the service with the command "servicewatchdog /uninstall"
2. Start and stop the service in Computer Management. This creates the
needed registry keys.
3. Start regedit and select "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareCCSchmidtServiceWatchdog"
Edit the 3 keys according to your needs:
Servicename = service name of the service to be started (e.g. Clipsrv for
clipbook)
Interval = time interval between start of ServiceWatchdog and start of the
selected service in ms. Default is 300000 (5 minutes).
Active = run ServiceWatchdog or not. Possible values are "yes" and "no".
Default is "yes". (no surprises here).
Check that startup type of ServiceWatchdog is automatic.

iPIG WiFi Hotspot VPN Security
$0 - iMacros WebSite Testing and Web Scraping
Using powerful 256-bit AES encryption technology, the iOpus Private Internet Gateway (iPIG) creates a secure VPN "tunnel" that protects your inbound and outbound communications (Email, Web, IM, VOIP, calls, FTP, etc.) at any Wi-Fi hotspot or wired network.
iPIG shields your data from even the most sophisticated methods of online spying and snooping like the "Evil twin attacks". In addition, your sensitive information is not only protected between your computer and the wireless access point you're using, but all the way to iOpus' secure connection servers deep in the Internet. This ensures that your data can't be easily hijacked through the air and at the point it transitions to a "wired" Ethernet connection.
Unlike other technologies, iPig works with any kind of Internet connection (Wifi, WLAN, wired ethernet) and requires NO configuration of any kind. You just start your favorite web browser, email client or chat software and switch the iPig encryption on: iPig grabs all Internet traffic before it leaves your PC and encrypts it securely! iPig also works with all major firewall software like Zonealarm or Norton Internet Security. The software runs on Windows 2000, XP and 2003 (Sorry, Windows 98, ME are not supported).

IPI.MANAGER
$599.95 - IPI Business Solutions, Inc.
Task management systems are now widely used in large organizations, and they require a thorough, systematized approach to implementation and deployment. In the SMB market, however, systems such as HelpDesk, ServiceDesk or TaskManager are very rare, because of the high cost of the software and the complexity of configuration and customization.
7 reasons for choosing IPI.MANAGER:
1. «Situation center»
Provides a comprehensive knowledge base incorporating every task whether it is completed, in progress, or scheduled for later execution.
2. Internal and external users.
Full control over the execution of tasks assigned both by company employees or managers and by external users.
3. Fast information exchange.
Open or private correspondence on any task using built-in instant communication tools.
4. Multiple task types.
Enable working with various task types: linear, dependent, recurrent, completed, and templated.
5. Useful statistics.
Tracking incidents, creating diverse reports, assisting in work process planning and forecasting.
6. Full control.
Versatile control by executive employees, enabling you to prevent faults at every step of implementation.
7. Additional modules.
Support of distributed and clustered configurations, working via the Windows client.
So you offer your products and services to customers and partners, you have a web site where these products and services are described, and the customers have got some questions before or after the purchase.
IPI.MANAGER assumes full control of job execution by tracking deadlines and reminding employees about expired or outstanding personal tasks. Using such a program is currently the only way for a company to manage tasks being executed. No other form of assigning tasks (orally, by e-mail, or in written form) allows top managers to view a ?slice? of all the tasks and activities in progress at any particular moment in time.
