Dear Microsoft, I am fed up with having to take your non-compliant
shit! I hearby announce Internet Explorer shall not be supported by me...
EVER.
My advice to readers is ditch the massive resource guzzling, insecure, standards non-compliant
pile of crap and use something safer, faster and better!
See my list.
(Digital)Caffeine
Do you want to turn your screensaver off without having to have to go through the long
winded 'humdrum' of bringing up the screensaver properties window? If so here is your answer!
(Digital)Caffeine is a small program that runs in the background simulating key presses every 59
seconds to stop the following:
- Screensaver activating
- Workstation Lock
- Computer going into Sleep
License
This software is released as Freeware and comes with no Warranty.
Requirements
In order to run (Digital)Caffeine you need to have Microsoft Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7 or WINE*.
At the moment WINE support only when you launch the program like so.
caffeine.exe -usemouse
or, in a file called DigitalCaffeine.ini
[config]
UseMouse=True
This program is portable and will run off a USB stick if necessary, Administrator rights not required!
