When we download from file hosting sites such as rapidshare, the one thing which frustrates us usually is the waiting time imposed on us and the time limit set for free users before downloading another file. Monitoring all these things can be a tiresome issue especially if you have other works to do and just can keep focused on the download itself.

There is lots of software available around that resolves this issue, but Mipony is one of them which really stands out.

Mipony is a software specially designed to download easily files from free hosting pages like Rapidshare and Megaupload. It bypasses filling captchas, allows to download files in queue or multiple files from various servers at a time.

ABK Freeware File Extension Changer .NET Solves All Your File Extension-Changing Troubles!

Have you ever come across any situation where you wanted to change the file extension types of certain files or folders? I do, and I come across situations like this a lot of times.

For example, my friend once sent me a Word file of Microsoft Office 2007, on which I accessed it on a computer with Office 2003 installed (which could not open Office 2007 files). Since I wanted to do some editing of her work immediately, I was forced to change the file extension of the word file from .docx to .doc just to open the file. There are also other examples in my life, like changing an audio file from .mp4 to .mp3, a video file from .avi to .wmv and many more.
