It is completely customizable, integrates seamlessly to your desktop and is spy-ware free. There is no need to browse to a search engine home page to do your searches. Simply drag ‘n drop your search text from any other application – or type it in - to the search box in your ToolButton Deskbar. You can send searches to virtually any search web site on the Internet or use the convenient pull down menu of over 80 search engines categorized for your convenience. Your favorite search engine is not listed? Not a problem. It can easily be added. The built-in RSS Reader changes the way you receive content from the Internet. As more and more websites are implementing RSS as a delivery channel for their content, it is inevitable that you will need an RSS Reader. Not only will you be on the leading edge with the ToolButton RSS Reader, but you need not spend a lot of time learning about RSS. The Reader automatically detects RSS feeds as you browse through web sites and once found, can launch the Reader without you having to go through the confusing process of subscribing. RSS feeds can be organized by adding buttons to your Deskbar. Create and add your own personal buttons or add any of the many pre-configured Publisher buttons. Publisher buttons contain navigation shortcuts to their web site, news feeds for their content, email-like Alerts to inform you of late-breaking news and much more. The information you want and expect from your favorite web sites will not be blocked by spam filters and firewalls. Tired of entering the same content over and over again in web forms? The ToolButton form filler does it all for you. Simply right click your mouse to paste your profile details into any web form. It can’t get any easier.

	AuctionSplash  License: Freeware
	AuctionSplash was designed to make eBay quicker, easier and more FUN to use. AuctionSplash uses Microsoft's .NET Framework 2.0. What this means is that it can run multiple tasks in the background. While you are working on your computer AuctionSplash will check your active auctions, sold items and bidding items and then inform you via a desktop popup if there are any events which require your attention. AuctionSplash lets you do all the main eBay tasks from your desktop. If you create a listing then you can use our free templates to make your auction really stand out. AuctionSplash will then let you verify your new listing (checking that everything has been entered correctly) and then preview it. The preview shows you how your auction will look when posted on eBay and also lets you know how much the listing will cost. Once the auction is running AuctionSplash will monitor your auctions and let you know if there are bids (making auctions far more FUN), any questions and also the number of people who are watching your item. AuctionSplash Pro also allows you to view advanced statistics on your auction - what country they are from, what time they viewed and how they found your auction (useful to know the search terms they used and, if they followed a link, what that link was). Once you have sold an item, AuctionSplash continues to be of service. It keeps you informed as to the payment status on your sold items. Once you have been paid AuctionSplash will print labels for you. If you are buying on eBay then AuctionSplash is designed to help you. With eBay you get email alerts 4 to 6 HOURS before an auction ends. With AuctionSplash you get desktop alerts at configurable times - say 10 minutes before an auction closes. You can decide whether you also want an audio alert and then choose what sound to make. Naturally you will also get a desktop alert if you are outbid.
