Free app creates System Restore points with a single click

Single Click Restore Point does what its name implies. Launch the executable, wait a few moments, and a confirmation window appears to let you know that your point has been created. My apologies for the nondescript screenshot, but there's really nothing to see apart from the notification.
The program is less than half a meg in size and totally portable, so it's handy app to keep on your trusty USB flash drive if you do any repair work.
SCRP's only downside is that you can't enter a description for your new point. Then again, if you could do that it wouldn't be "single click." Although most of us are probably using the default double-click in Windows, so technically it's still not really a single click. But it is dead simple.
You can find the download on both the author's site and Softpedia.

I don't know if this is a labor of love or merely the brainchild of four very gifted games designers, but Level Up is a really weird mash-up of gaming elements that you have probably never seen in a Flash game before.
Let's start with the premise itself: Groundhog Day meets Memento. The game experience revolves around 'days': you explore the world and the clock slowly ticks towards the evening. You bounce around picking up gems and talking to the denizens of 'Level Upland'. Eventually you feel tired and head back to ...

Ah yes, Restore Points. oh boy! they sure do use up a lot of spare. On time I was wondering why I had so much little space left on my HD, Using Tune Up Utilities 2009 I found out that 10GB was being used up by a few restore points. This was ages ago hence I cant remember the number but it was less that 5 that's for sure. But boy don't you kick yourself when you have non to fail back on ;)

Shouldn't it be called Double-Click Restore Point? I guess it depends on whether you've configured XP to act like Windows 98's "web-like" single-click-to-launch default configuration. Regardless, my post is pretty petty, but that was the first thought that popped into my mind when reading this article. Carry on...

Haha true. I hate anyone who uses their computer as single click. I just can't work right until I change it.
