- Do you remember your frustration when you're trying to read or look at something on the screen, but mouse cursor is right on the top of it? It happens time to time (frequently at most inappropriate time) and what you have to do is to get that mouse and move it away. It takes your time and creates a frustration. But there is solution that makes mouse cursor disappear from the screen when you do not need it. There is tiny program Mouse Hider™ (latest version - 1.4) that watches your mouse activity and hides it after some period of idle time. You may read again -- no cursor obscuring your important part of the screen. To make your experience even better it allows to hide mouse cursor right at a time when you press any key on keyboard and usually at that particular time you don't need that mouse anymore. When you move mouse or press any mouse button cursor reappears immediately serving its good purpose. No hassle, no frustration, just convenient way to have mouse input right at the time when it's really needed. Mouse Hider does not require any installation - unzip executable into any appropriate folder and simply run it. You don't need special uninstall program - it'll take case by itself.

- If you want to have a convenient way to request an advanced search via Google service by using IE context menu - install Google Search Helper v.1.2 add-in for IE. It does not consume any additional computer resources (like other toolbars do), but it does simplify search requests. All you need to do is to highlight a query word or a whole phrase on your current web page and then call Google from context menu (mouse right-click). Results will come immediately. You may even make a search request in the web site locally and Google will make search for you within the current site/domain only.
- If you see a registry key on a web page and want to check its value right on your computer - now it's easy to do so in IE by highlighting the key, making mouse right click and choosing "Bring It On" menu item. It becomes possible if you download and install BIO add-in for IE.

No more sudden "fixes" of OS which can't be removed, no more unexpected modifications of OS without your consent. The latest versions support monitoring BITS service as well.
