Ashampoo IP Spam Blocker 1.01
A growing number of Internet users are complaining about a new kind of popup advertising windows that suddenly appear on their screens. This new kind of spam, known as "IP spam" or "net spam", is generated through the internal Windows® messaging service, which is actually a tool provided to enable network administrators to send messages to multiple users via the network. (It shouldn`t be confused with the Windows® Messenger instant messaging program, which is completely different.) Important: This tool is only for Windows® NT, 2000 and XP, you can`t use it to switch off the messaging service under Windows® 95, 98 or Me. Here is how to de-activate it on these systems (please note that you should only do this if your system is not integrated into a local network): - Click on the "Start" button in your task bar - Select "Settings"/"Control Panel"/"Network" - Click on "File and printer accessibility in Microsoft® networks" - Select "Delete"
Ashampoo Firewall FREE 1.10

For example, this enables you to prevent your computer from being turned into a "zombie" controlled by spammers or destructive hackers. Features: - Easy Mode / Expert Mode - Easy: One-click firewall protection for everyone - Expert: Activate expert functions if you need them - Configuration Assistant guides you through the setup process - Amazingly small and compact, uses minimum memory and computer resources - Learning Mode identifies applications that try to phone home - Block All panic button to stop all traffic with a single click - Detailed logging of all connections - Four additional network security tools included in the tiny package

Ashampoo Magical UnInstall 2.82
Windows becomes slower and slower with time. However, this is not an issue about age which can`t be avoided, but increasing unused data placed on the motherboard may cause loss of speed when using Windows. This is due to the fact that each newly-installed application adds new files and registry entries to the chaos. Which is even worse: numerous files, drivers, links and registry entries remain after uninstallation which are actually not used anymore, however, still keep the system busy which therefore leads to loss of speed. Ashampoo Magical UnInstall completely monitors each new installation. This is ensured by the system remembering each single change to the system. But that`s not all to it: Installations can be completely undone, if requested. This means: If you leave uninstallation of software to Ashampoo Magical UnInstall, the system will look afterwards the same as before installation, i.e. no single unused file will remain on the system. Ashampoo Magical UnInstall offers a modern and easy-to-use surface. Once installed and configurated, the tool works from the Windows system tray. An internal help feature explains each single function of the tool. A brief summary of the most important features: - Automatically recognizes a retrieved SETUP.EXE or INSTALL.EXE programme and records the following installation. - The tool may be configurated in such a way as to recognize also installation programmes with any other names. - Any uninstallation can be undone at any time using the ReInstaller tool - Automatic checking for available updates online - Installation screen starts with installation and records any changes to the system. - Any newly-installed add-ons, plug-ins or patches can be added to installation recordings at a later stage
Ashampoo StartUp Tuner 2 2.00
Lots of programs saved in your computer do exactly as they please. Many applications consider themselves to be so important that they trigger an auto-start command in the system without being requested. That means that every time the computer is booted up, they are started together with Windows, which isn`t always the user`s intention. As a result of this, the start sequence becomes considerably longer - and manually shutting down most of the unwanted windows immediately afterwards because they simply aren`t needed, certainly isn`t fun. The Ashampoo StartUp Tuner 2 lists all auto-start entries and allows them to be individually deleted or to be deactivated. If the user proceeds with caution in this area, and at least deactivates all of the unnecessary entries, then they will be able to enjoy a clearly faster start to Windows. Useful system maintenance functions: - Start menu: delete or deactivate unnecessary entries - Services: either activate or deactivate available services - Software: targeted uninstalling of software which is no longer needed - BHO: delete internet explorer plugins
Ashampoo Internet Accelerator 2 2.10
Many windows settings work in harmony in order to get the best out of an available internet connection. Unfortunately, the factory design of these settings means that they are often not optimised for a particular connection type, or they are adjusted by a newly installed software product unasked. The consequences are plain to see: the computer can`t get the best out of your internet connection. As a user, this means you have to wait longer until web pages have loaded in your browser or until internet downloads are finished. For beginners and for most professionals, it simply isn`t possible to find the settings necessary for the fine tuning of the internet in the registry - let alone to edit them. No problem: the Ashampoo Internet Accelerator 2 will be pleased to complete this job for you! A slow internet connection costs time and gets on your nerves. For this reason, taking the time to optimise the settings is almost considered a must - particularly since an optimisation in terms of speed doesn`t come with any additional cost, neither for a hardware extension nor for the software, as the Ashampoo Internet Accelerator 2 can be used completely free of charge. And surfing the internet is fun again: - Faster surfing with an analogue modem - Get more out of your ISDN connection - Optimise your DSL via LAN cable, cable modem or wireless LAN - Better configuration of other LAN connections
