| We hope you enjoy your stay with us. The following services
are provided complimentary to our guests. Newer listings are at the top,
and the archives follow.
File Compression Software
eZip Wizard
Why should extracting a ZIP file be any harder than choosing
a file, selecting what to extract, and choosing a destination?
With eZip Wizard, it's not. eZip's simple interface guides
you, step-by-step, through creating, updating, and extracting ZIP files. With
eZip you're never more than three steps away from having extracted, or
compacted files.
Search Tools
eScout
Finding information on the web can often
be a tricky task. That's why eScout includes over 200
searches from various sites on the web. We've included ways
to help you buy concert tickets, watch your stocks, check
your sports scores, find the forecast and anything else we could think of. That
way, you don't have to waste time finding all these sites yourself.
FTP
eFTP
Designed from the beginning to keep file transfers as hassle-free as
possible, eFTP does just that by presenting FTP sites in a familiar
Explorer-type interface. With a tree view on the left, changeable file view
on the right, and Internet Explorer/Office 97 "buttonless buttons" eFTP
Explorer breathes familiarity. eFTP remembers sites and files that you have
seen and keeps the information cached in memory for easy and fast access.
By getting just what is needed, when needed, eFTP Explorer makes browsing
an FTP site over the web easy and fast. (And, unlike a certain browser that
shall remain nameless, makes sure to clear its cache when it's through. )
