Odyssey of Col. Ranseier
By Michael Hoffmann
More trouble in space: The Empire of Xolphur has declared war on the Confedaration. The problem is that the complete military forces are already busy conquering the Lula system. So the Super Intelligence Agency sends out Col. Ranseier to get the Vaxsyth Buster and destroy Xolphurian leader Colplath. And that means some things will certainly go wrong. Odyssey of Col. Ranseier is an action game. It''s difficult to define it more exactly, as the sub-genres alternate with each act. At times the Col. beats his way in classic platform style, later he finds himself in a space shooter and so on. Fortunately there is a password feature allowing you to start at any chapter.

MidToMid
By PS Software Development
Why is MidToMid making all that noise? Well, partly because of endorsement by Bono (U2) and Bon Jovi. Naturally, when these famed musicians chose a small indie conversion engine over heavy-weight titles with big advertisement budgets, the music industry media picked up the story. But the real reason why more and more musicians switch to MidToMid is its unique capabilities. For example, the program can perform partial conversions. This means that a user specifies a fragment of the file he or she needs to convert, presses one button, and that''s it. There''s no reason to convert the entire file and then cut out a desired fragment. MidToMid supports all popular MIDI file types - MIDI 0, MIDI 1, RIFF MIDI 0, RIFF MIDI 1 and MIDI Karaoke, offering a wide range of tweaking options. The program comes with its own sequencer engine that handles import and export of MIDI files (Type0 and Type1). A lot of time and effort invested in development of the engine resulted in excellent processing speeds and outstanding quality results, thanks to the unique algorithms used. MidToMid offers batch conversion options and command line support, which are two essential features for heavy users, like record studios, sound engineers, radio stations and professional musicians. MidToMid''s interface is very simple and straightforward. On the left side there is a file tree that allows users to select files and folders to be processed. Then, there is output format and output folder boxes. Naturally, there are playback and sound volume controls, as well as advanced settings for professional users. That''s it. The program can be tried absolutely free. So, download your free trial copy and rock on!

Advanced Maillist Verify
By Tweak Marketing Inc.
Advanced Maillist Verify (AMV) is a program that verifies the validity of e-mail addresses in databases, address books and mailing lists. Now that''s not just a standalone program - it can be easily integrated into existing systems using open COM/ActiveX and CGI/ISAPI interfaces. The package includes detailed documentation and examples (for most major programming languages) for integrating Advanced Maillist Verify into Internet/Intranet servers based on Active Server Pages technology from Microsoft and ColdFusion from Allaire. The program works on the same algorithm as ISP mail systems do. Mail servers addresses for specified address are extracted from DNS. The program tries to connect with found SMTP-servers and simulates the sending of message. It does not come to the message sending - AMV disconnect as soon as mail server informs does this address exist or not. AMV can find about 90% of dead addresses - some mail systems receive all messages and only then see their addresses and if the address is dead send the message back with remark about it. Works with Socks5 proxy (to use in LAN). The program supports all popular file formats - from simple mailing lists to Eudora, The Bat! and Windows address books, and not just shows non-existing addresses, but also able to remove them from source lists and create "exclusion" lists. ODBC SQL support is there, allowing to work with DBMS like MS SQL, Oracle, MySQL, MS Access and others, and even with Microsoft Excel. Advanced Maillist Verify can save time and money for businesses who send newsletters to their clients, nonprofits who send bulletins to their members, or any person or business that needs to maintain a clean e-mail contact list.
