I2P 0.6.1.21 beta

Apr 20, 2008 Author: hillary | Filed under: Security

I2P is an anonymous network exposing a simple layer that applications can use to anonymously and securely send messages to each other. The network itself is strictly message based (ala IP), but there is a library available to allow reliable streaming communication on top of it (ala TCP). All communication is end to end encrypted (in total there are four layers of encryption used when sending a message), and even the end points (”destinations”) are cryptographic identifiers (essentially a pair of public keys).
Latest Changes:

* Use a minimum uptime of 2 hours, not 4
* Cut down the proactive rejections due to queue size - if we are at the point of having decrypted the request off the queue, might as well let it through, rather than waste that decryption
* Bug fix to the I2PTunnel IRC filter to support multiple concurrent outstanding pings/pongs
* Further reduction in proactive rejections
* Don’t let the pending tunnel request queue grow beyond reason (letting things sit for up to 30s when they fail after 10s seems a bit… off)
* Be more conservative in the proactive rejections
* Trim out sending a blank line before USER in susimail. Seemed to break in rare cases
* Small tweak to I2PTunnel CSS, so it looks better with desktops that use Bitstream Vera fonts @ 96 dpi

AutoGK (Auto Gordian Knot) 2.33 beta

Apr 19, 2008 Author: hillary | Filed under: Anti Virus & Security

A very simple and powerfull tool for making dvd rips.
AutoGK comes with almost all that you’ll need to create excellent quality backups of your DVDs.

This program puts the VOB files onto your hard drive, and in the process breaks the encryption and Macrovision protection which DVDs have, and which is illegal in many countries. You’ll have to get it and install it yourself.

But the AutoGK Installer will install everything else that you need. Just designate a folder for the installation, and everything will be taken care of. Optional programs include the XviD Encoder, AviSynth, and VobSub.

If you already have the most recent versions of them, then you don’t need to install them again. If you don’t already have them, aren’t sure if you have them, or have no idea what they are, then go ahead an

KeePass Password Safe 1.05

Apr 16, 2008 Author: hillary | Filed under: Security

KeePass Password Safe is a free/open-source password safe or manager which helps you to manage your passwords in a secure way. You can put all your passwords in one database, which is locked with one master key or a key-disk. So you only have to remember one single master password or insert the key-disk to unlock the whole database. The databases are encrypted using the best and most secure encryption algorithms currently known (AES and Twofish).

KGB Archiver 1.2.0.23

Apr 16, 2008 Author: hillary | Filed under: Compression Tool

KGB Archiver is the compression tool with unbelievable high compression rate. It surpasses even such efficient compression tool like 7zip and UHARC in terms of the abilities. Unfortunately although its powerful compression rate, it has high hardware requirements (I recommend processor with 1,5GHz clock and 256MB of RAM as an essential minimum). One of the advantages of KGB Archiver is also AES-256 encryption which is used to encrypt the archives. This is one of the strongest encryptions known for human.
