Inspector Gadgets: Windows 7 Gadgets for Monitoring Your PC

It's been nearly two years since Windows 7 was released, and yet there are still some features that Windows 7 users may not be taking full advantage of -- such as desktop gadgets. Similar to the Mac's Dashboard Widgets, Windows desktop gadgets are mini-applications that reside on your desktop and can display live data, perform simple functions like search or password generation, or give you a sneak peek inside the inner workings of your PC.

By default, SysInfo appears as a small icon that doesn't show any data, but click on the icon and a huge panel displaying system information in a wide variety of categories pops up. On top of things like operating system details and the capacity utilization of the processor, there's data on the computer's drives, network connections and battery life.

SysInfo doesn't provide all the details that more specialized gadgets like Network Monitor provide, but it's an excellent overview, and there's an uptime clock that shows how long it's been since the system was started. You can choose to have SysInfo display all its info on the desktop or just in clickable category headers or the single icon, and you can adjust its size on the desktop.

System Control A1

In contrast, System Control A1 focuses on the essentials. In addition to a prominent digital clock that shows the current time (in a 12- or 24-hour format) as well as uptime, System Control presents a nifty bar graph showing how much memory the system has as well as its free memory available.

It also monitors the utilization of the processor's threads (which it calls cores) over time and displays the results in graphs -- useful information for those who push their systems to the limit.

Unfortunately, System Control's display isn't adjustable, and it can steal a lot of desktop area.

These two gadgets complement each other nicely: SysInfo does a good job of showing a snapshot of many of the current goings-on inside your system, while System Control A1 graphs processor utilization over time, which can be helpful in trying to trace a program that's been using a lot of system resources.

One of these gadgets -- or both -- belongs on every PC.

Core Temp Gadget

There are few things worse for your computer than allowing its processor, often its most expensive part, to overheat and burn out. All it takes is one key transistor in the chip shorting out and the whole thing is an expensive piece of garbage.

ALCPU's Core Temp Gadget can help keep your PC from getting hot under the collar. For it to work, you'll also need to load the free Core Temp application, but the whole process takes just a couple of minutes.

Version 2 of the Core Temp Gadget shows what processor your system has, its actual clock speed and how much of the system's memory is being used. On many systems, it'll also display the chip's voltage, although some processors -- mine included -- don't support this.

Security rundown for week ending Aug. 19

Debate over wisdom of firewalls, passwords and SSL -- plus, Anonymous strikes again

Some older assumptions about security -- such as firewalls are needed for perimeter defense, and we'll all make do with reusable passwords and browser-based SSL connections provide great security -- were once again ripped apart as we heard this week from several individuals who say they simply don't agree.

Best Microsoft MCTS Training – Microsoft MCITP Training at Certkingdom.com

"I don't think firewalls are necessary. They prohibit work from being accomplished," was one remark from Nathan McBride, executive director of IT at Amag Pharmaceuticals, in describing how the company has migrated off an older Microsoft-based network to one based on both application cloud services and cloud-based single-sign-on for about 240 employees. His story provoked some blistering comments online from Network World readers. Here's a selection from a few:

"Firewalls. This comment can only come from an IT manager. Really? Do you know what a firewall does? ..."

"I almost LOLd! Wow. I'd like to see them pass a PCI scan with no firewalls. Cloud service providers use firewalls, too."

"How dumb does it get? ... let's hire some clueless jerk to make it someone else's responsibility ..."

"Say What? ... And what company doesn't put a firewall between the Internet and their computers, whether PCs or servers? I'm not impressed."

MORE ON SECURITY: Tips and tricks for protecting Android devices

All of this just shows that the debate over whether perimeter firewalls are worth it anymore is still fierce (and yes, the PCI standard for payment-card calls for a lot of firewalls). You may recall that it was the Jericho Forum with its group of IT professionals about five years ago that began pounding the drum on the firewall topic, saying for perimeter defense, a firewall is largely an outmoded idea and can impede e-commerce. The debate is still intense about it.

The Jericho Forum has now taken up the topic of identity management, saying continuing reliance on reusable passwords in this era of cloud computing is totally misguided, and a stronger trust framework needs to unfold for large-scale Internet use.

That's what the National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace (NSTIC) initiative from the Obama administration is trying to coordinate, with the high-tech industry taking the lead. We caught up this week with NSTIC Director Jeremy Grant, who explained what the federal government has in mind so far to foster more secure alternatives to passwords in a new "identity ecosystem." Don Thibeau, chairman of the Open Identity Exchange (OIX) --the members of which, including Google, want to participate in the NTSIC process -- also told us watch for some innovative pilot projects coordinated among Google, Microsoft and AOL for secure email later this fall.

And finally, when it comes to doubting the usefulness of long-used technologies, this week we heard about a team of researchers pointing out that SSL, the encryption scheme that protects many online transactions, isn't really that trustworthy because the chain of trust that's established via a browser can be broken when phony certificates are issued. Researchers from Carnegie Mellon University think there's a better mousetrap that can be made through their ideas proposed in Perspectives; a second idea, called Convergence, is being worked on by Moxie Marlinspike, a fellow at the Institute for Disruptive Studies, a lab devoted to privacy, anonymity and computer security.
