It’s been quite awhile since I’ve sent out a Toolbox update. I’ve been quite busy with personal matters the last few months. I have managed to release a few updates and new scripts though.



First up is a script inspired by PC911’s own Daterminehtor. Called the Copy/Move To Extensions, it installs additions to Windows’ right-click context menus to, what else, copy or move the selected file or folder. It even comes with an uninstaller in case you decide you want to be rid of it. (And clocking in at a little over 1KB for the download, it really is worth a try.) You can download it from the Script Repository.



Next is an update to Trust Setter. Actually, a couple of updates. First, Scotterpops asked if it would be possible to add a site to the Trusted/Restricted zones based by right-clicking on a link you were about to click. This way you could restrict sites before you visited them. I thought this would be a very useful improvement for Trust Setter and so enacted it. Then came a few minor releases to clear up some bugs that cropped up when I added the new feature. As with the Copy/Move To Extensions, you can download the new version of Trust Setter from the Script Repository.



Finally, I’d like to give some sneak peaks into a few things I’m working on. Thanks to the Jewish holidays coming up, I don’t know when any of these will be completed, but you’ll be alerted when they are. First is a set of Browser Security tests that will help you maximize the security settings on your browser. (If you’re a part of the DSLR Security forum you might have tried a beta of these tests.) Next, is my first HTA application tentatively titled HTABackup. It is a Hypertext Application (half-local web page, half-script) that will let you copy all of your data folders to a backup folder for easy archiving to CD-R (or tape or any other backup medium). Finally, I’ve got a few software reviews either in the works or on my drawing board. Again, there’s no guarantee when any of these will be released, but I’ll alert all of you when they are completed and ready for use.
