July 11, 2022 at 7:44 pm #19409RKill is a program developed at BleepingComputer.com that was originally designed for the use in their virus removal guides. It was created so that they could have an easy to use tool that kills known processes and remove Windows Registry entries that stop a user from using their normal security applications. Simple as that. Nothing fancy. Just kill known malware processes and clean up some Registry keys so that your security programs can do their job.

July 20, 2022 at 8:28 am #20266RouterStats is an ADSL router monitoring program for Windows. It displays continuously updated graphs of up/down noise margins and connection speeds, and also provides a means of adding user-defined graphs for displaying any other data which is available from the router interface. In addition, for more advanced users, a telnet interface can be configured to provide much more detailed information than is available from the router’s web interface.
