Total Commander 7.50 released for Windows
by Paul O'Brien Sep 11th 2009
A new version of Total Commander for Windows is available - version 7.50.
Total Commander is a file manager / windows explorer replacement that is positively packed to the rafters with features such as side-by-side windows, compression and decompression of most popular (and unpopular formats), a fully featured ftp client, file and folder comparison, parallel port linking (remember that?), directory synchronisation and much more.
In Beta / Release Candidate since April, the updated version adds a host of new functionality including full Unicode support, an enhanced help file, improved 64 bit support, improved synchronisation and a powerful search function. The user interface has also been improved with subtle yet effective tweaks.
You can view the full feature list and a massive, massive changelog on the Ghisler site but I think it's fair to say it's a pretty complete toolkit for power Windows users.
Total Commander is available in 64 and 32 bit versions, a historical 16 bit version (hey, I don't doubt there's SOMEONE out there who still needs to use Windows 3.1 for something) and even a pocket version for Windows Mobile devices.
Total Commander is shareware with a 30 day trial, after which a licence is priced at $38.
Hat tip to Remo for the heads up!

One of the first things programs I install on any new Windows Mobile device is a replacement for the built-in file explorer utility. The default utility is difficult to navigate, can't browse ZIP files, and doesn't have split screen support. 
I've been using Pocket PCs for about six years. I've owned more PDAs than I can keep count of. And on each one, the first thing I do when I open the box is install a couple of free programs that Microsoft should be including standard (or integrating into the operating system).
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, ...
