I am a beginner Visual Basic coder, here are some of my Basic programs, free to use:
ICQ Rnd() - generates 8-digit passwords out of all kinds of symbols on your keyboard. Very useful to keep on the desktop to generate unique passwords.

nrcalc - calculates algrebratic functions. Easy to use for high school students :-)

WhoIs - whois info for domain names. Probably the most useful prog for this forum :-)

I also made NeTTooL which copies your IP from whatismyip.com and displays it in the program, but I can't get it to work on any other computer besides mine

Beta version

coming soon.
Enjoy!
