KeyCounter 1.0.0.1
Track when your PC is in use throughout the day

KeyCounter is a tiny program which tracks PC activity by recording when a key is pressed, or the mouse is moved.

Note that the program only records when these things happen, not the specific details. So you can use it to see that, say, a lot of typing went on between 9 and 10am this morning, but it won't tell you exactly what that typing was.

Still, this can still be very useful if, say, you need to complete a timesheet to record when you were working. Or if you think someone else is using your PC when you're not around and you'd like to collect more information.

Whatever your purpose for running the program, it's very easy to use. Just run the small executable and it begins collecting keypress and mouse movement data. And, later on, when you want to review your activity, just right-click the KeyCounter system tray icon and select Today to see what's happened in the past few hours, or History if you've run the program before and want to view previous days.

KeyCounter is very basic, then. But it's also very small, consuming under 2MB of RAM on our test PC, and if you only need to maintain a simple activity history for your system then the program could be ideal.

Verdict:

KeyCounter provides a quick and easy way to see when a PC is being used throughout the day

Ashampoo Burning Studio 2013 (v11.0.6)

Free Full Commercial Software

Ashampoo Burning Studio 2013 is a compact, simple, but surprisingly feature-packed disc burning suite.

The program makes it easy to create simple data discs and audio CDs, for instance: just drag and drop your files onto the list area and you'll be burning the finished disc in a couple of clicks.

That's just the start, though. Burning Studio 2013 can also create data discs with customised, interactive multi-page menus, perfect if you'd like a more professional way to share and present the disc contents.

A built-in backup tool allows you to create backups which may be encrypted, compressed, and span several CDs, DVDs and Blu-rays.

And there are modules to create VCD or SVCD video projects; burn video DVDs or Blu-ray discs from prepared folders; create, browse or burn disc images (ISO, CUE/ BIN and Ashdisc formats are supported); copy discs, erase them, design and print disc covers, labels and booklets, and more.

The focus throughout is on ease of use, though, and so Ashampoo Burning Studio 2013 remains very straightforward, whatever you're doing. Most disc projects are created via the same simple interface, and for the most part all you have to do is drag and drop the necessary files. But experts will find more advanced options are only a click away, and if you need to then you can set ISO and UDF version, enable Joliet, make a disc bootable and more.

Note the download here will take you to the Downloadcrew Software Store where you can download Burning Studio 2013.
