Grand Theft Auto Four - ?

April 28th, 2008

Hey - what a load of spondoolies - when you watch the BBC and probably other channels  tonight tell the country that there is a new very violent game out that is the most violent yet - then we get a nice clip of the movie and hey guess what - loads of the more base amounsgt us go and buy ton loads of them. Yes you guessed the game is Grand Theft Auto Four - Look if it is a bad violent film then ban it - NOT Promote it (  Any media organisation that promotes violence on the streets of the UK, hearken )

Look at like this, If you want your child to stop spitting then why spit yourself as this act is very much spitting in the wind my friend.

Who is Bryan Kehl?

TV on the Web

April 25th, 2008

After playing with embedding Media Player into an html page for use on the Vista Sidebar, it suddenly struck me like a bolt of smoldering lighting from the depths of the abyss! umm… Anyway it did stike me to add the TV ability to the website - so I did, I am still struggling to find channels however and would be happy to add any that you know of. Check it out in the meantime - Watch TV Online

TV on Vista Sidebar

April 21st, 2008

Well today I have been entertaining myself by writing a little gadget for Windows Vista Sidebar. I managed to plug media player into it and gave it the ability to change TV channel. I am thinking of changing it around a bit - maybe a drop down box to allow for more channels. Either way if you are running Vista then why not download and try it. Download TV for Windows Vista Sidebar.  ( less than 6kb ) - After downloading rename the file extension from ‘.zip’ to ‘.gadget’ and then double click to install. I am interested in your views on what I could do with this.

Spyware problems

April 17th, 2008

Like I said, when I am not searching out software to add to the Dungeon I am fixing computers - I dislike this job and especially today as this HP Pavillion I have is literally infested with spyware, a real lack of spyware protection and a case of McAfee not being enabled has led to a mess. I dont want to wipe the system… If my patience is not long enough then  it will be entering the garden via windows - and I dont mean Microsoft Windows - LOL

Dogs in Wigs

April 16th, 2008

I admit I added this software today, but only to remind me of how crazy some people are - Dogs in Wigs is just a great thing to see - even if just to say you saw it LOL . Seriously for dog lovers and wig lovers this is a great screen saver.

Welcome

April 16th, 2008

Welcome to my blog.  My name is James and I run the Software Dungeon. I enjoy searching out software and posting it on my web site.. I also write software too but only as a hobby. I am currently working as a PC Technician but am hoping to start more websites soon so I can retire from the repairs side of my work.

I hope most of you are happy with the software that I add to the Dungeon, and I know that I should have started this blog a long time ago as I would like to keep in touch with my visitors.  Anyway I will post here as often as something interesting comes along. Meantime check out the Dungeon there are currently over 5500 software titles to download.

#I would be happy to receive requests for software to be posted so please get in contact.
