Today's useful utilities are another set of tools called AnalogX. The guy behind AnalogX, he's either a musician who likes programming or a programmer who likes music. On his site you can download 8 full albums of music he composed (92 songs, 7+ hours). But the main reason I go there is because of software tools.
AnalogX offers 67 tools broken up into 4 categories; Audio, Networking, Programming, and System.
PacketMon - PacketMon is an extremely lightweight packet sniffer. It does not require a device driver like all other packet sniffers. However, it won't capture 100% of packets. There are some packets it can't capture. It has a very clean easy to use UI.
NetStat Live - NetStat Live (NSL) is a program that does a very good job of monitoring network traffic and displaying it as an easy to see graph. You can customize the UI to show incoming traffic, outgoing traffic, total data received, total data sent, CPU usage, etc. This program is useful when you're concerned with how much data is being sent/received over the network by a given machine.
TextScan - TextScan searches a given binary file for embedded strings. It searches for both ASCII and Unicode strings, allows you to control minimum and maximum string lengths, and displays it all in an easy to use GUI.
PCalc - Every C/C++ developer should have Programmers Calculator or PCalc. PCalc allows you to enter any math equation and it will evaluate it exactly as C/C++ would at runtime. For example you can enter "55 & 12 ^ 3 - 4 | 5" PCalc will evaluate this using C/C++ operator precedence. The output is in int, float, hex, binary, octal, etc.
