Rohos Mini Drive creates protected partitions on USB flash drives

Rohos Mini Drive
Rohos Mini Drive is a free Windows utility that will let you create a hidden, password-protected and encrypted partition on any USB flash drive. In theory you could use the software on your hard drive as well, but it really comes in handy if you have a tendency to carry sensitive data around on flash drives but also have a habit of accidentally leaving them lying around.

When you plug a drive with a hidden partition into your PC you'll only see the unprotected partition. If you have Rohos installed on your computer you can right click the icon in the system tray to connect the hidden partition. If you're using a guest computer you can execute the "Rohos mini.exe" file in the main partition on your flash drive to enter your password.

Civiballs is a beautiful, soothing physics puzzle Time Waster

CiviballsI have an absolute weakness for physics games, and while Civiballs isn't the strongest physics-based game, what it lacks in the physics department it makes up for a few times over in style and fun.

In Civiballs, you are presented with a few colored balls, and your goal is to get those balls into the same-colored urn on the level. The "civi" part of Civiballs is that there are 3 sets of levels to play, each representing a different civilization. While the civilization doesn't affect gameplay, the artwork for each level is beautifully themed to it's appropriate era.

To play the game, you are given only one tool - a sword with which to cut the chains that are holding the balls. The puzzle part of the game is in figuring out what order, and with what timing to cut each chain. Do it right, and all the right balls end up in the right urns, with no stray balls entering an urn (a no-no). Do it wrong, and you get to start over again.

Civiballs is not terribly deep on gameplay; the entire game can be completed in about 15 minutes. But if you enjoy this type of game, it will be a very enjoyable 15 minutes.
