Tumblr 101: Tips And Tricks To Get Started
Commands in Demand remembers obscure Windows tricks so you don't have to
But it also includes a number of hidden gems that you'd normally need to tweak some registry settings to get at, like the ability to change the transparency level of the Windows taskbar or desktop icons. The program will also:
- Show you what's currently in your Windows clipboard
- Extract icons from files
- Hide or show your desktop icons
- Open or close your default disc drive or safely remove a USB drive
- Turn off your monitor
- Display your system resources (memory, page file usage, CPU speed)
- Launch Windows Apps including the calculator, Notepad, Sound Recorder, and Run dialog

you stealed this from lifehacker :|

No, as you can see in the article, I found it on Life Rocks 2.0, which published it earlier in the day than Lifehacker... which found it at Shell Extension City. Neither we nor Lifehacker were the first site to discover this tool today. But it's pretty cool and definitely worth sharing. So we both did.

AVG also reports a problem: Win32/Induc.A

Likewise, Microsoft Security Essentials reports the file to be infected.
I'm surprised a major site like Download Squad doesn't check their downloads before recommending?

It was infection-free when I downloaded it yesterday from Freeware Files.

Avast didn't register anything.

Microsoft SE found the virus immediately during the download from download.com

Avast reports a virus in the installer [Commands in Demand.exe]
Malware name: Win32:Induc
Malware type: Virus/Worm
VPS version 090818-0, 18/08/2009
Good chance it's a false positive but need the developer to repsond to that..

Looks like it's a cheeky/benign infection but annoying nonetheless. Can be easily fixed by the developer by recompiling SysConst.dcu

My name is Vasilis Stamatopoulos (Vasilios Freeware) and I am the developer of Commands in Demand.
After some reports for a fake alert of some Anti Virus programs, I recompiled with a different method and fixed the problem.
The new dot upgrade is: Commands in Demand 9.6.1 and you can find it in:
http://www.freebyte.gr/commandsindemand.zip
or through my web page:
