Neil Rubenking posted at AppScout (which is an undertaking of PCMagazine) about how his search for a utility brought him to the NirSoft website. According to the NirSoft home page:
NirSoft web site provides a unique collection of small and useful freeware utilities, all of them developed by Nir Sofer

There are dozens and dozens of small single-purpose utilities at this site, and as far as I can tell they're all free. You'll find utilities to recover a lost password or read out the passwords stored by IE. Network monitors, browser tools, command-line utilities, they're all here. In particular I'll be returning to peruse the many freeware system tools. This site is quite a find.
While many of these are for advanced users, some of his utilities for showing hidden passwords and the Microsoft Office add-ins manager can be useful to the average computer user.
As with any downloads, you always need to be mindful of the potential for spyware and other nasties hidden in the files, so it is critical that you run good anti-virus and anti-spyware utilities and make sure they are up to date. As with any of these sites and utilities, use them at your own risk.
