Espionage 1.1.2

Espionage is a revolutionary application that aims to replace FileVault.

Espionage is the only software that will let you encrypt individual folders and interact with them straight from the Finder! No longer is it necessary to encrypt your entire home folder just to protect your email, or chat histories.

Encrypting data unnecessarily slows your computer down, and for laptop users, can be a drain on battery life. Espionage solves this problem by letting you encrypt only what you want, and it does it while integrating directly with the Finder.

And Espionage takes particular care to integrate well with any backup application.

Just double-click on a folder and enter your password at the prompt to unlock. Right-click on it to re-lock. Folder encryption has never been this easy before.

And for users who just want to put a password on unimportant data without securely encrypting it, such as a folder full of hundreds of videos that they don't want their grandparents to see, Espionage has them covered. While securely encrypting folders is its chief purpose, Espionage can put a password on any folder in a flash without touching its contents.

WHAT'S NEW

Version 1.1.2:

• NEW: support for encrypting folders over a network mount


• NEW: ability to run Espionage on multiple user accounts


• NEW: you can now rename a folder using 'Locate Missing Folder...'


• FIXED: updated ispyd to remove unnecessary logging


• FIXED: 'Locate Missing Item' menu item in File menu grayed out properly


• FIXED: some issues with non-ASCII characters


• FIXED: moving folder could cause Espionage to lose track of its password


• FIXED: potential hang when locking a non-encrypted folder w/simultaneous access


• IMPROVED: more informative logging


• IMPROVED: restoring folders copies over extended attributes


• IMPROVED: upon restore volume is made visible to improve robustness in case of error


• IMPROVED: upon restore image is appended with date in case of existing image in parent


• IMPROVED: one-shot notification explaining how to securely delete original folder


• IMPROVED: uninstaller now deletes preferences too, resulting in a truly complete uninstall


• IMPROVED: added instructions on how to fix error -1712


• IMPROVED: error handling in installer


• IMPROVED: Espionage won't give annoying redundant error if helper fails during operation


• IMPROVED: more safety checks on what can be encrypted and what can't

Transmission 1.40 - BitTorrent client. (Free)

Transmission 1.40 - BitTorrent client. (Free): "

Transmission 1.40

Transmission has been built from the ground up to be a lightweight yet powerful BitTorrent client. Its simple, intuitive interface is designed to integrate tightly with whatever computing environment you choose to use. Transmission strikes a balance between providing useful functionality without feature bloat. Furthermore, it is free for anyone to use or modify. Transmission is open source (MIT license).

These days, bandwidth is a precious commodity. Transmission allows you to ration this commodity efficiently. You might want to queue your torrents for maximum performance. Or throttle their speed during peak periods. Transmission easily lets you do both, and thus only works its hardest when you want it to.

Support for Growl notifications and dock badging keep you updated with what's going on so you can get back to doing more important things.

If you are interested in helping out the Transmission project in any way, we encourage you to head over to our development page. The current developers welcome anybody who is interested in implementing new features, documentation, or translations.

PocketMac RingtoneStudio 1.1

PocketMac RingtoneStudio... Just drag any movie or unprotected music file onto PocketMac RingtoneStudio and it does all the rest. It's the first tool to allow you to easily create ringtones from practically any multimedia file -- from QuickTime movies to unprotected music files of all types.

What's even better, there's no crazy iPhone hacking required. Your iPhone doesn't even have to be connected when you're creating your ringtones.

• If the movie or song is less than 30 seconds in length, PocketMac RingtoneStudio converts it automatically into the proper ringtone format.
  
  
• If it's longer than 30 seconds, PocketMac RingtoneStudio will open up a preview window so that you can select the exact 30 second clip you'd like.
  
  
• PocketMac RingtoneStudio will place your completed ringtones into iTunes' 'Ringtones' folder.
  
  
• The next time you connect your iPhone, your ringtones will be automatically synched.
  

It's that simple!
