FavBackup backs up browser settings (IE, Firefox, Safari, Opera, Chrome)
FavBackup can handle your browser history, bookmarks, cookies, preferences, and other data. And it's both a free and portable application, which means you can run the executable utility from a USB flash drive without installing FavBackup to your computer.

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...

Great find, I'll definitely be using this.

Still, small annoyance, thanks for highlighting this.

We typically include 3 download links in every story. One in the body of the article (which I accidentally omitted this time), one behind the photo, and one in the "source" link at the bottom of the article.

Can it be controlled from the command line so that it can be used in a script?

How does this compare to FEBE? I know it says it captures everything, but I'm curious if it really works as advertised.
