If you're having difficulty downloading it from the original site you can get the .pdf from here too.

SeaMonkey Browser

I've just reinstalled the SeaMonkey browser & have set the built-in e-mail client to receive mail from my Gmail account as well as my home account. You can get SeaMonkey from here & you can also get a zipped no-install version from the same web page.

LHA Compression in Windows

If you need to use LHA compression in Windows you can download a Command Line version from here. Once you've placed it somewhere on your system you'll need to add it to your PATH environment variable.

Extracting a file is pretty simple: lha x ‹file.lha›

TrID

TrID is a useful command-line tool that can analyze files & tell you about their format.

You can get it from here.

7Zip Compression

The Command line version of 7Zip can be downloaded from here.

Online File Decompression

Today I ran into a small problem when I needed to decompress a file which had been compressed in the Rar format. I run a pretty minimalist system so I've only got built-in Zip support & I really didn't want to install any extra software.

After a quick search on Google however, I found this site where you can upload compressed files & they'll be decompressed.

7-Zip compression

Need help compressing & decompressing certain files in Vista?

Just download 7-Zip from here.

Zip folder association

Ever had that problem in Vista when you remove some compression software & the built-in zip software won't work?

Copy & paste the text at this link into Notepad & then save it as zipfolder_fix.reg

Double click it & it will be added to your registry & fix the file association problem.
