ArcDiff is a tool to compare archive files on its contents basis.
Compares different type of archive, for example between ZIP and LHA. ArcDiff does not compare on the outward appearance of archives but the substance. Currently supports ZIP,LZH,CAB and RAR archive types. Can compare two archives each other, archives to disk folders, and two disk folders each other. Can print and export the result of comparison.
When you want to compare each content of two archives, need to melt them first and to remove the temporary later. You may forget to remove or remove wrong files by mistake. With ArcDiff, you can be free from such troublesome operations.
ArcDiff is also effective for comparing disk folders, because of its very efficient memory usage and estimated speed (takes linear elapse according to quantity of target files). Accepts drag and drop to specify the folders to compare.

As more and more companies connect their computers into networks and prompt their employees to use shared resources, searching for files over LAN becomes an increasingly difficult task. Frequently, people do not remember the exact file names, which results in a horrendous amount of time spent waiting for the search results. Plus there are other issues, like searching through hidden shares, password-protected resources, processing files in different languages and so on and so forth. Does your current search utility work the way you want it to? Then you probably should consider something completely different.
StrongSearch is an effective and flexible LAN file search utility that produces exact matches to your search criteria quickly and reliably, regardless of the network size. This multi-threaded search tool lets users set several masks at the same time and conduct multiple searches simultaneously, which speeds up the search tremendously. The other great features are hidden resources search, flexible domain search settings, and search result export options (HTML and XML). The program even supports searching through password protected resources. Importantly, when conducting searches through hidden and password-protected resources, StrongSearch does not use any illegal methods and requires authorization data to be entered.
The program supports multiple file search attributes (like file type or date of creation) and is very simple in use, making it perfect for home networks and even individual PCs, not connected to any network. The other nice features are Drag'n'Drop support and Copy/Paste feature for the files found as a result of the search. Best of all, the program is free to try. You can get it and see how well in fits into your network architecture, before purchasing it.

QuickSpot is a visual file compare and folder compare utility. It compares 2 text-files or folders and highlights the differences found between them. File-differences can be reported in detail, down to each individual byte or character. Lines that are not in synch will be highlighted for quick identification. Differences can be edited, viewed, printed or saved as a file.
In QuickSpot, you can set unique comparison-criteria that find the needle in the haystack! You can compare specific lines or all lines, narrow down the comparison across specific positions per line, and filter out source-code comments. You can also skip a number of lines repeatedly, or compare different ranges in the files.
File- and folder-editing features allow a quick fix of the discrepancies found by QuickSpot. A scrolling line-container lets you compare any 2 lines and shows all differences between them, character by character. You can deal with any discrepancy found right on the spot. In addition, there is a find/replace option and support for copying/merging text between the 2 files; files can also be saved and printed. In the folder-section, individual files can be viewed/opened, deleted, renamed, moved or copied.
Various options are available how to display the loaded files or folders and the discrepancies between them. All settings can be changed at any time and can be saved permanently.
