Benheck.com Toolbar

Post by A_Username »

I made a nifty little tool, a benheck.com toolbar. It includes a RSS Reader, Popup Blocker, Google Search box, links to benheck.com, you PM box, the forums, and it automatically updates, and if you hate it, you can uninstall it with ease. I hope you all enjoy it, I originally wasn't gonna release it, but I thought it'd be pretty cool.

IGNORE THAT PROBLEM MESSAGE BELOW UPDATED NOW READY FOR USE

Mirror#1 (quickest)

OR

Download it here:

No it is not, I've had this thing installed on my PC from day one and have had no problems. I'll bet my life on it, if I spam you I'll probably get my IP blocked from the forums, I really like Benheck.com, and would hate to be banned from it.

I meant that it may do things like monitor what you are doing. Not that it may disrupt your computers normal operations to such an extent.
