Password
Protection: Secure your Windows-based PC with Dekart's Logon
software. The $39 application lets you store all your Windows
passwords on the portable storage device of your choice, such as a
smart card, a USB drive or a hardware token. You then connect the
device to your PC and type in your PIN, and Logon automatically
enters your passwords for you. Logon offers either two- or
three-factor authentication and can be configured to work without
hardware.
Website
Builder: Get information posted on your website quickly and
easily with Contribute 3.0, Macromedia's updated
content creation tool, designed to let nontechnical users publish
information to sites and corporate intranets. The $149 application
($79 for the upgrade) includes a license to Macromedia's new
server-based Contribute Publishing Services system, a central
management tool for the IT staff. Contribute 3.0 integrates with
other Macromedia applications, including Dreamweaver MX 2004.
