Module Four = Downloading tools / plug-ins Task

Looking through the options I already have a lot of the tools mentioned so I decided to download the following:

Copernic Meta for PC

Bookmark Buddy for Windows

Both were relatively simple to download.

Bookmark buddy for Windows seems relatively easy to use. It combines both sets of my bookmarks from both Internet Explorer and Firefox and could be a useful offline tool to refer back to web sites. It also tells me which sites have been used and favourites etc.

This tool is on a 30 day trial so although useful I can't see myself using to the extent where i would want to pay for it. Not when there are so many other free applications out there.

Copernic - Search Engine

Copernic offers a lot of different applications and a wide range of searching options.
In particular the email search interested me and I am looking into it further.
Also it has the ability to save your search results so that you don't need to go back through browsers to find other results.
