ContextMenuCleaner 0.1

I've been holding off releasing this for a while, but I think it's time now.

ContextMenuCleaner cleans some of your context menus in Windows, and currently supports cleaning:

  • Desktop
  • Windows Explorer
  • Internet Explorer
  • Windows Taskbar

Basically, you just open up a context menu,

ContextMenuCleaner - Dirty Menu

then double click the system tray icon, and drag some items over to the Hidden section.

ContextMenuCleaner - Config

The next time you open this menu it should have been cleaned:

ContextMenuCleaner - Better Menu

Here's a before and after of the Internet Explorer context menu:

ContextMenuCleaner - Before and After

EDIT: If you want to remove an item such as "Scan file.zip", you can drag an item over to the hidden items list, and rename it to "Scan *". This should remove all items that start with "Scan ".

As usual, comment here with your bugs/suggestions.

Peace!

IXWebHosting WordPress Mail Problem with PHP

If you've had a problem sending mail with WordPress from IXWebHosting lately, it's because they've implemented a new anti-spam system on some of their servers.

They probably told you to add this:

ini_set('sendmail_from', 'user@domain.com');

I've hacked a little script that does the work for you, and I've made a plugin out of it.

 

I may have not implemented it right, but it works so I don't care. Well, I suppose you could leave some comments if there are changes that should be made...

RockBox

If you have an iPod Photo and you're jealous of all those iPod Video bastards, then get RockBox, NOT iPodLinux, RockBox!

 

Need I say more?

 

Well the user interface is beautiful, everything seems to be easier.

Intense Debate

Installed a new comment system, provided by Intense Debate. Check it out, it has OpenID integration.

 

Old comments still show up using the old system it appears.

Clippee 0.2

I really needed a clipboard manager, and I wanted it to be simple to use. I also didn't want a window showing me a million different items in it.

Introducing Clippee:

Clippee

Clippee shows you a menu of recently copied items when you press CTRL+ALT+V. When you select an item, whatever is in the clipboard gets swapped with the selected item.

I haven't added support for saving items yet, but will do it soon.

Bugs/Requests in the comments please.

Clippee requires .NET Framework 2.0.
