Rain is a CPU cooler program. Originally designed as tool for the serious
overclocker, this is a cooler program with no frills or extras. It doesn't need
them. Rain issues the HLT (halt) command during periods of inactivity and the
processor remains cooler because of it. Plain and simple. The benefits of
running a cooler CPU are that it reduces power consumption, can extend laptop
battery life, and prevents CPU heat related freezes and lockups. More
important, it can prolong the life of your PC.

Total Uninstall can help you to monitor any changes that were made to your
system during installation of a new software product and allow you to perform a
complete uninstall without having to rely on the supplied uninstall program
(which may leave files or changes behind). To use it, you simply launch the
installation program from the Total Uninstall interface and select the system
areas to be monitored. The program will then create a snapshot of your system
before it installs the new software and an additional snapshot after install
completes. It then compares the two snapshots and displays all changes in a
graphical tree view, marking all values and/or files that have been added or
changed as well as some before/after details. Total Uninstall will save these
changes and if you decide to uninstall the application, it will reverse all
changes to the previous state.

Memtest86 is a thorough, stand alone memory test for x86 architecture
computers. BIOS based memory tests are only a quick check and often miss many
of the failures that are detected by Memtest86. Since Memtest86 is a standalone
program it does not require any operating system support for execution. It can
be used with any PC regardless of what operating system, if any, is installed.
The test image may be loaded from a floppy disk or may be loaded via LILO on
Linux systems. Any Unix, Windows or DOS system may be used to create a boot
floppy or bootable CDROM.

The Cacheman utility is designed to improve the performance of your computer by
optimizing the disk cache, memory and a number of other settings. Cacheman
prevents frequent paging to the hard disk caused by poor memory management, so
you get improved performance, faster system reaction time and greater
stability. Wizards and predefined profiles make it suitable for novices and yet
it is also powerful and versatile enough for the more experienced user.
Cacheman also corrects generic problems on systems with more than 512MB of RAM.
