Due to the fact that application icons are in most cases self‑explanatory, it is often enough to minimize inactive windows to the task tray area or to the edge of the screen without having to display additional textual description. However, hovering mouse cursor over the minimized window icon provides such information, making it easy to master such alternative minimization technique both for advanced and newbie computer users. $19.95 regular price; 20% discount ‑ $15.96 http://www.actualtools.com/usergroups Alpha SoftwareAdded: 4/10/2009 Expires: none Current version in Alpha Five version 9.

INVISUS iCare If you're looking for the best PC help desk and technical support subscription service, look no further. Local subscribers love the INVISUS security and support service: "I haven't had any problems with viruses or spyware on my computers since subscribing to INVISUS five years ago. I love the INVISUS service policies with iCare, too. Any of the other kinds of problems I've had with my computer have been quickly resolved when I've called in, and I really like the attention I get from INVISUS - they're very courteous and helpful."
- Stuart Foster , Calgary, Canada / Mesa, Arizona
We've used INVISUS for five years now, their tech support has been very, very good. With most tech support, you have to go through a lot of hoops to get to talk with anyone, but with INVISUS I've almost always been able to get someone on the phone within a minute or two, and then when I do, I've been able to talk with support techs who are easy to talk to, very friendly, very patient, and very understanding. They've never pressed me to hurry up or been impatient with me in any way. That's been key to their success with me.
They can take over my computer and "keep it" for a couple of hours and then call me back to tell me that everything's been updated, and fixed, and corrected and all cleaned up. I've found that when they do that, when they give it back it runs much faster than before they started to work on it.
