Rose City Software Newsletter

Customer Update   -   This eZine also online here      January 16, 2006
 

Dear Rose City Customer,

This is the first newsletter for the new year... normally we send it bi-monthly, and you should have received the December newsletter last month, but we wanted to start the year off on the right foot. The next issue will not be due until March.

This month we have another neat frebie for you as well as a special discount on our widely acclaimed Tweaking Toolbox XP utility.

You are receiving our newsletter because you purchased a software title from Rose City Software, or you subscribed to our monthly newsletter. If you no longer wish to receive the newsletter, you may unsubscribe using this link. You can also update your information by visiting this link.

Our newsletter contains lots of tricks and treats as well as other special information from our parent site, InfiniSource.com, a very popular Windows Resource Center & HelpWithWindows.com, including critical Windows update info, useful Windows tips and tricks.

We hope you'll enjoy this edition of the newsletter and you are welcome to forward it to your friends who might also enjoy it.

This month's fr-eeee software offer
With each edition we will try to bring you a useful software offer... just as we did in previous months. Some are direct from Rose City and some are great toys and tools we have discovered elsewhere that we think you will like!

This month we have one for you called Free Hide Folder. As the name implies Free Hide Folder is a free computer security software to hide your private folders.

Everyone has files or folders on their computer that they do not want to share with strangers. The best way to protect your personal information is to make the folders visible ONLY to you. Free Hide Folder does just that, and it does it easily and effectively.

It may be useful for you to hide your personal data on your PC from others. Unauthorized users will not know where your personal files are located and they will not be able to find them. You can hide folders easily with just a few mouse clicks. Free Hide Folder is protected by a password which you can change or remove it at any time.

Free Hide Folder works with all current verisons of Windows [9x/Me/NT/2000/XP/2003]

Free Hide Folder is completely fr-ee. Visit the Free Hide Folder website or download Free Hide Folder right from here.

You'll find hundreds of useful tips and tricks for every version of Windows at our own www.HelpWithWindows.com (formerly Windows-Help.NET).

Because we operate a Windows help site and help forums and we sell software to enhance the Windows platform, we are in a prime position to hear about many of the problems reported by average Windows users out there around the world. Many people are looking to improve the reliability, speed and effectiveness of their Windows machines... and that's where we can help.

Here's one you might find useful for Windows XP:

Turn Off ZIP Folders

Personally we hate the way Windows XP displays zip files as folders in the tree heirarchy in Windows Explorer. A zipfile is NOT a folder, it is a file. Here's a handy trick on the helpwithwindows.com website for how to turn off that behavior and display zipfiles as files within the folder where they are located.

  Well, we could go on and on here... But why not stop by our website where you'll find links to all this and a whole lot more, absolutely free, from www.InfiniSource.com, "The Internet's Premier Resource Center."
