Kintecus
$59.95 - Vast Technologies Development, Inc.

The Kintecus simulation software has been cited in many peer reviewed journals: J. Phys. Chem.A, PCCP, J. Biol. Chem., Plas. Chem. Plas. Proc., Int. J. Chem. React. Tech, Arch. Bio. Chem. Bio. Phys., THEOCHEM, etc. It is an Industrial Strength/Research Grade chemical modeling, chemical kinetics and equilibrium software for simulation of combustion, nuclear, biological, enzyme, atmospheric and many other processes via a graphical interface. Kintecus features the ability to quickly run Chemkin models. Multiple Chemkin/freestyle thermodynamic databases can be used. Isothermal/Non-isothermal, adiabatic constant volume, constant pressure (variable volume) can easily be modeled with a flick of a switch. Programmed volume (replicating engine piston motion), programmed temperature, programmed species concentration can all easily be included in your model WITHOUT C/FORTRAN programming. Heterogeneous chemistry is also easily modeled. Kintecus has the ability to fit/optimize rate constants, initial concentrations, Lindemann/Troe/SRI/LT parameters, enhanced third body factors, initial temperature, residence time, energy of activation and many other parameters against your dataset(s). Note that Kintecus will actually fit the parameters at EXACTLY the time your data was measured with confidence bands/uncertainty analysis. Unlike other programs, Kintecus DOES NOT interpolate a function against your data and then fit the values against this interpolation. There is no need to “clean” your data, suggest interpolation methods nor specify timing meshes against your experimental data since Kintecus calculates values at exactly the times you specify in your experimental datafile .Can also scan parameters and bootstrap standard errors as well as perform metabolic control analysis via eigenvector/eigenvalue analysis. Can also perform complex hierarchical cluster analysis on temporal concentration profiles with/without experimentally obtained temporal concentration profiles.

IzyMail
$1.49 - IzySoft

The IzyMail gateway application is an innovative new solution to access AOL, MSN, Hotmail or Yahoo from any e-mail application or utility, allowing users to complement the conventional browser interface with alternate e-mail applications, automated rule processing, advanced anti-virus or spam protection tools.

Designed as a native Windows service application, IzyMail operates equally well for users with a single computer, in a small home network, on an organizational's network, or a public server. IzyMail complements and extends the AOL, MSN, Hotmail or Yahoo browser interface with the capabilities of popular e-mail applications like Outlook, Eudora, IncrediMail, TheBat as well as specialized tools like SpamKiller, PDAs or handheld computers.

IzyMail supports sending and receiving of AOL, MSN, Hotmail or Yahoo over the standard Internet protocols POP3 and SMTP. A unique capability of IzyMail is the IMAP4 interface for true message synchronization and full folder support.

By using IzyMail's IMAP interface, users can achieve true synchronization of all email with multiple applications and from multiple workplaces. In a typical scenario, users might be using MS Outlook in their office; on the road, they might be using a laptop or Pocket PC for a quick check without the risk of creating multiple, unsynchronized copies of incoming messages.

IzyMail helps users during the transition from other providers. The supported Internet standard protocols facilitate continued use of all application they have learned to know over the years.

Although IzyMail does not perform any rules processing on its own, it enables to use the rules and filter engines which are built into many other applications, thus complementing AOL, MSN, Hotmail or Yahoo's basic spam filter mechanism. Users can guard themselves against being sent damaging code in e-mail by setting appropriate security levels in their application.

SI Ping
$0 - Pingram Software

Test communication with remote computer and check its online status over the Internet with free and visual Ping tool for Windows.

What did your mom do when you got sick being a kid? Most probably the first thing she did was giving you a thermometer to check your body heat. If you are trying to access a remote computer and are not getting a response, chances are that computer is not functioning properly. In other words, it might be sick. But how would you give a thermometer to that PC?

There is a free tool called ping.exe that comes with most versions of Windows. You can use this tool to poke the remote PC and check its response. To use ping.exe, you would typically invoke a command line, which would open a black console window, and type ping.exe followed with IP address of the computer you want to check. Usually you would get a response right in the console window in a matter of seconds. You would judge - or, rather, guess, - the remote computer's health by the cryptic numbers printed as decimal integers. If the remote computer is not available, or if the network is not available, or if some link or a piece of hardware in between you and the remote PC has failed, you'll get nothing. It is up to you to guess what and where have failed.

SI Ping, on the other hand, gives clearly legible and well formatted output by providing easy to understand and well explained numbers. It displays all the vital information, such as time to access the remote computer, in milliseconds, and allows you to ping more than one computer by simply selecting their address from a combo box. Thanks to its user-friendly, convenient user interface, SI Ping is much more convenient to use than the Windows ping.exe.

SoftInstitute releases well-designed, simple to use products that help computer users solve one particular problem. Our products are free, and typically perform just one task, such as ping, trace route, or lookup, but do it in a convenient manner.

SI Lookup
$0 - WinCatalog.com

If you have a domain name, you can use one of the numerous Whois tools to determine its owner. Whois provides complete information about the owner of any domain name, up to the level of mailing addresses and telephone numbers. But what if you don?t have a domain name? What if all you have is a mere IP address? Or what if you don?t need information about the domain name, but are much more interested in who owns the Web server where it?s hosted?

Quite often it is still possible to determine the owner, or, rather, the assignee, of an IP address. IP addresses in North America are assigned by ARIN, an independent, nonprofit corporation that provides IP registration. It is possible to unveil details about the organization that uses a particular IP address, or, to be precise, a block of IP addresses.

There are no tools that come with Windows which can look up information about an IP address. Instead, you can visit ARIN database, learn about its query syntax, and fire up search on an IP address. If the address does not belong to the North American block, you will quite often see only the basic information specifying the country and organization responsible for assigning IP addresses there. To discover owner information of your original IP address, you then will have to visit a whois server of that organization and repeat the whole process.

While there?s nothing wrong in doing all these queries, it takes an awful lot of time. We at Soft Institute wrapped the same thing into a convenient package. SI Lookup queries the right server right automatically, and returns clearly legible, well formatted output. It displays all the vital information and allows you to query more than one IP address by simply selecting it from a combo box. Thanks to its user-friendly, convenient user interface, SI Lookup is much more convenient to use than the online tools that Unix-age non-profit organizations provide on the Web.
