Apart from major changes in Windows 7 like Taskbar, Jumplist, Wallpaper Slideshow etc there also several other small changes like changes in Icons & system icons. One such change is from animated network system tray icon to plain normal Icon in Windows 7.
If you have noticed in Windows XP Network icon blinks whenever there is any network activity, this helps users in identifying that their network/internet connection is intact & working find. However in Windows 7 due to non-animated network connection system tray icon you will know status of network connection.
You have to manually check it via command prompt or hover mouse over network connection icon. Did you ever wish to get back Windows XP style Network Connection system tray icon in windows 7 ? Well then here is work around.
Igor Tolmachev of itsamples.com have developed nifty app Network Activity Indicator which adds Windows XP style Network connection system tray icon.

You must be looking for a good password manager for Windows 7 since there is no such build-in tool. I have been using Secure Password Storage for a few weeks, but the functionality is limited, the choices too are limited, and the app as a whole is sometimes quite slow and buggy.
Today, I stumbled on Password Provider, a secure desktop password manager with tons of functionalities packed into a simple-to-use app. You can create, store, and access unlimited number of logon/passwords and other important information.
When you run the app for the first time, it will ask you to choose the location where the data file will be created. It is perfectly safe to choose the default location.

Next, it will ask you to enter the master password. Make sure the master password is long and contains alphanumeric characters. To further secure the master password encryption key you can set the number of iterations. The default value 20,000 is perfect but you could increase it to make the encryption more secure.
Please note that setting a very large number will take a long time for calculations. We would recommend using the default value, i.e, 20000

Once inside, click the Create New Site button given at the bottom-right side of the window. It will then show you three options – Create new logon site, create new credit card, and create new generic item. Select the desired link to proceed.

If you select Create a new logon site, you will need to enter the form in both Identity and Logon tabs before clicking OK. In Identity tab you have to fill the basic information of the website while in the Logon tab you need to enter the username and password.
There is also a build-in password generator which can generate random password of your liking.


If you select Create new credit card, then you have to fill both Identity and Data tabs. They include basic information, such as, Bank Name, Issuing Company, Contact Number, Name On Card, Number, Code, PIN, Expiration Date, and so on.


The Create new generic item link allows user to protect any important information, once you click OK, the information is secured. All new items created are neatly categorized on the main window.

Did you notice the Facebook website’s icon in the above screenshot? The app can retrieve any website’s icon if this option is enabled. Go to Options and you can choose a new skin, change the sorting or grouping method, or change any other option. Have a look at the beautiful skins below.

You can also run the program from system tray notification area if this option is checked.

Password Provider is one advanced password manager packed with tons of features and clean layout. There is an option to choose a backup destination, you can either backup when every change is made or backup manually. It can also export all information to a text file.
Another interesting feature is the “Send Key” option which can be found when right-clicked on any logon website in the main window. Click this option once and then click on any text field in any other window to paste the password.
Personally, I have made it my desktop password management app of choice in Windows 7. It can also work on Windows Vista SP2 and requires .NET Framework 3.5, but has not been tested on Windows XP. It is developed on C# and uses WPF(Windows Presentation Framework) library. Enjoy!
Virtual Drives Manager is a small portable utility for Windows that can quickly create a virtual drive. Sometimes user needs to mount a folder that is frequently accessed but is located deep inside as a virtual drive. Once you mount any point(folder) as a virtual drive, it can accessed quickly from My Computers.
Creating a Virtual Drive is this tool is quite a breeze. Just select the folder, choose the drive letter, and hit Create Drive. You can also mount any point on the network, thus making it easier for network administrators to access important data over the network quickly.

In the screenshot below you can see two folders which are mounted as separate virtual drives.

Even though it is quick and fast, we would love to see two new features in this tool – an option to rename the virtual drives and the option to mount multiple folders as a single drive.
Download Virtual Drives Manager
It has been tested on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7. Enjoy!
Memory Cleaner is very different from other system memory cleaning tools out there. What makes it unique is that it uses the functionalities build inside windows to clean the system memory, thus making it both effective and safe.
Most memory cleaning tools you will see out there use ill-advised techniques which works only on Windows XP and all OS before it. They will fail in both Windows Vista and Windows 7, and might even corrupt your system memory sectors.
Memory Cleaner as mentioned in the introductory paragraph, takes a very different approach. Not only does it allow users to clear the system cache, but also allows them to trim processes’ working set. Both options are safe to perform and will not harm your system.
By trimming processes’ working sets, I was able to free around 100MB of RAM while clearing the system cache saved an extra 170MB of RAM. Collectively I was able to reduce the memory usage by 270MB.
Apart from clearing the system cache, it also displays live memory usage, along with pagefile and virtual memory usage. You can also check the average, maximum, and minimum usage.
It works on Windows Vista and Windows 7. Both x86 and 64x systems are supported.
