Open Source android applictions repository F-Droid

F-Droid is a software repository (or "app store") for Android applications; it functions similarly to the Google Play store, but only contains free and open-source software. The apps can be browsed and installed from the F-Droid website or directly from the F-Droid client app . The F-Droid client app will automatically update installed F-Droid apps. The website also offers the source code of all applications for download. F-Droid does not require users to register and flags applications that contain "anti-features" such as advertising, user tracking or dependence on non-free software. The software running the F-Droid server is free software, and allows anybody to set up their own Android app repository.

Chocolatey (like apt-get or yum but for Windows)

Chocolatey is a package manager for Windows (like apt-get or yum but for Windows). It was designed to be a decentralized framework for quickly installing applications and tools that you need. It is built on the NuGet infrastructure currently using PowerShell as its focus for delivering packages from the distros to your door, err computer.

Chocolatey is brought to you by the work and inspiration of the community, the work and thankless nights of the Chocolatey Team, and Rob heading up the direction.

You can host your own sources and add them to Chocolatey, you can extend Chocolatey's capabilities, and folks, it's only going to get better.

With all of this in mind, think of Chocolatey as a framework that you can build on top of. Chef, Puppet and Boxstarter all have ways for using Chocolatey to ensure the state of a computer and packages installed. Even Microsoft has decided to use Chocolatey's framework with the upcoming OneGet client! See Jeffrey Snover's post for more information.

Sandboxie

Wikipedia
Sandboxie actúa de forma previa a las infecciones en las computadoras equipadas con Windows. Este software aísla dentro de su contenedor los archivos de navegación y los de funcionamiento de las aplicaciones que controla.

Los softwares (navegadores y otros) ejecutados por medio de Sandboxie y los archivos telecargados están encerrados en unas réplicas de los directorios normalmente utilizados. Además, Sandboxie hace una copia de una parte del registro de Windows para proteger el original contra las inserciones malévolas de claves y valores.

Así, cuando un programa se está ejecutando dentro de Sandboxie, las modificaciones efectuadas no son efectivas en los archivos auténticos, y los parásitos y los bugs encerrados en el interior del contenedor no alteran el sistema operativo. De la misma manera, los malwares de toda clase quedan acantonados dentro de la bandeja de arena. Las novedades o los cambios de interés se deberán registrar fuera del sandbox después de un control de validez.

Además, Sandboxie evita desde la zona que controla toda inyección en el kernel de Windows (driver, DLL). Así, actúa de cierta manera (pero a un nivel distinto) como el sistema PatchGuardsupervisor, sea malicioso o no. de Windows Vista 64 bits impidiendo el funcionamiento de todo software en modo

Bastará con vaciar el contenido del sandbox antes de acabar una sesión de utilización del ordenador para que todos los rastros inútiles o peligrosos aislados en él sean definitivamente borrados del disco: malwares, histórica y contenido del caché de navegación, etc.

Anomos 0.9 – Running on Ubuntu 9.10

Download

Anomos 0.9 For:

Linux

Windows

Users on other systems should use the Downloads page.

Anomos has:

Anonymous, Encrypted Multi-Peer-to-Peer BitTorrent Downloads
* Censorship Resistance
* Free and Open Source Code
* No Ads, No Spyware
* Standalone Client – No Background Services
* Easy to Use
* Availablity for Windows and GNU/Linux (and OSX, theoretically)

Anomos is a pseudonymous, encrypted multi-peer-to-peer file distribution protocol. It is based on the peer/tracker concept of BitTorrent in combination with an onion routing anonymization layer, with the added benefit of end-to-end encryption. By combining these technologies, we have created a platform where by no party outside of the trusted tracker will have any information about who a peer is or what they are downloading.

Anomos is designed to be easy to use – you won’t even be aware of the security that it provides. Anybody who is already familiar with BitTorrent won’t have to do anything differently.

A more technical introduction is avaliable in this blog post. It’s a bit outdated, as the final protocol is still under active development. Soon, we’ll be releasing a complete guide to the Anomos protocol. The FAQ may provide some answers to any questions you may have.

The source code is available in our Git repository, and regularly updated source code documentation is available here. Downloads of releases are available on the downloads page.
