InfraRecorder was originally posted by me a while ago, but T was kind enough to revisit it to get it up to snuff for official release, update the launcher and app, etc. It's a full featured CD and DVD burning app. From the dev test, there are a couple minor changes: official splash added, splash fade removed and time shortened.

TypeFaster TypingTutor is an open source typing program that teaches you to touch type (though not as open source as they say, the original installer packs the Visual C++ runtimes :(). It's natively portable, but there were some issues with the current dir (CafeMOD:() and settings. Turns out that I forgot to add SetOutPath before the ExecWait :P.

I checked the readmes and the posts on R3x on this site, but I found no hints. Is there a chance to edit the theme.ini without touching the menu itself(as is done for the search button to the web)?

Phoenix DoSS (downloading software)

Submitted by thegillion on March 4, 2008 - 10:44pm

Phoenix DoSS is a file-streaming/downloading program that finds the files using well-known search engines Google and Yahoo!. It is not the same as other programs because it runs through these engines, which is safer than downloading via P2P. It uses an Internet Explorer core with auto-proxy support. Phoenix DoSS is best used with Internet Explorer 7 and Windows Media Player 11 installed, and can run in all Windows operating systems from Windows 98 to Vista (i.e., not in Windows 95 or earlier).
