Here’s a simple script that lets you toggle on or off your internet proxy in Windows. Save it to a file called Proxy.vbs on your desktop and double-click the file to execute the script.film Despicable Me 3

As shown below, the script will not change the proxy server address, but will simply turn it ON or OFF. If you want to also modify the proxy server and exception list every time you turn it on, update lines 37 and 38, and uncomment lines 40-41.Watch Full Movie Online Streaming Online and Download

Parts of this script come from a comment someone posted on a web site, but I no longer have the link to provide proper attribution.

Checks for particular id3v2 frames in a set of files.

In case it might be useful to others, here’s a script that can be used to convert a bunch of *.wav files to *.flac and *.flac files to *.mp3. The script will first first convert all *.wav files (if any) to *.flac, then it will convert all *.flac files to *.mp3. See the usage instructions starting on line 31 below for more details.

I called the script

Usage:

All wav/flac files in source/dir and its subdirectories will be converted to
mp3 and placed in dest/dir while maintaining the directory structures. ID3
tags will also be copied from flac to mp3 files.

Existing files (mp3 or flac) will not be overwritten.
