Name that network program...


Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone,

A week or two ago I had to format my laptop because it was way to unstable. No problems there, but I seem to have lost a name of a really good program. A few days before I formatted my laptop I downloaded a free program that was excellent. It basically worked like this; you would type the name of a computer that was on your LAN and than it would get all types of infomation about that computer. This includes, but is not limited to, CPU, RAM, HDD Infomation, OS, and more. It also had another very helpful function, on another tab in the program you could view all the open processes on the remote computer and you can end any, as needed. This program could run on 9x, 2000 and XP I believe, and the client could be 9x, 2000 or XP I believe. One thing I am sure about is that this program didn't need any client software.

Does anyone know the name of this program? I believe that the program was free, but not sure about that.

Thanks,

None of them listed... I got the program of a forum... It was either Neowin's, NTFS's or Netstumbler. I was looking on NTFS's forum for 3 hours, no luck. I was looking on this forum for 1 hour, 0 hours at netstumbler, but I doubt its there.

Anyone?

Well, I believe the purposes are legal. I'm a father of two and I'd like to keep an eye on my kids. I allow them to do virtually anthing. Including the fact that I let them put deadbolts on their bedroom doors. I let them enjoy themselves, but with recent downloading/lawsuit issues, I'd love to be able to avoid getting fined because of my son or daughter downloading the cd's that we have the money for. So, I guess I'm just looking for easy to use network administering options. I'm not very computer literate and I need the ease of use.

I honestly don't know what to do... all I remember is some guy saying something along the lines of "wow, I never knew that much infomation could be taken [the cpu infomation, ram, etc.]

:(

I must say I'm kinda skeptical because you shouldn't be able to shut down services at will like that on another pc unless you were logged on remotely so I'm really not sure what you're talking about.
