Hello all.
Not really sure where to put these so I have decided here is the best place for them.
So, I am busy in my studies at school, one of which involves coding in Java and stuff like that, so recently I have put my skills to use and with a lot of looking up stuff have came up with a couple of small programs that I am willing to shear with people who might find them useful to use. They are all small files, and require Java to work, if you don't have Java then please click here to get it.
So their are 2 programs which perform different functions. One clears the system clipboard, the other is a shut down timer with password protect. I will explain them sepratly bellow. They both should work fine, and I will work on improving them if people like and use the programs.

So, you are careful to not be caught looking at bondage stuff or else your partner or family might find out about you. You use private mode in browsers, you clear the history and recently viewed files, maybe even have a password protected folder (can explain a very good way to make one if some wants) but arnt you forgetting something?
The system clipboard will store anything that you have used cut or copy on until you log of your computer, this clipboard can be pulled up by anyone before then in a number of different programs, and you don't want that. Lets say you have been looking up bondage, then your child dose some homework on word, and they view the clipboard and finds some strange web addresses on their...... This program will fix that.
This is a simple little program, that when ran it will clear or empty your system clipboard, and it will always do this until a test to see if it is empty comes back true. This will stop anyone from being able to find out anything that you have done using the clipboard and will avoid you needing to log or or restart you computer to empty it.
This is contained as the 'Clear.jar' file in the compressed file bellow. It also needs 'SystemClipboard.jar' to run in the same folder, without this it cannot edit the clipboard and will fail. All other files are not needed for this to operate.

You have invited your friend over for a TUG, you hear the door bell, is that them? You know as soon as you open the door and they see you, you will be tied up, is it worth turning of your computer to see if it is them? Well, this program can help with that.
It will prompt you for a password, if you enter in 1 password then it will turn of the program, if you enter in another password it will allow you to add time to the clock. Every incorrect password will use a try, and every try has a set amount of time. Once all of the trys have been used then it will shut down your computer for you. All of the timings, passwords and other settings are configurable, so you can change them to whatever you want to make the program work how you want.
So, you can make it shut down your computer after 5 minutes with 1 try, go and answer the door, if it is them then your computer will shut down over time, if it is not them then you can go and type in the password and stop the program from shutting down your computer. Even better, if they decide to use your computer, and cant guess or extract the password from you, then the computer will shut down on them keeping your computer safe from their magic touch.
To also add to this, their is a setting to enable the program to empty the system clipboard every x seconds, to stop them from using any of the cut, copy or paste options to any real effect. I have also managed to make another small program which will enable you to set the settings up for this including the passwords (which are stored after being encoded)
---------------------------------------------------------
So, they are the 2 programs that i have made. They are all as .jar files and require a few other files to run, these are explained in detail in the readme file included in the compressed file.
Please leave any feedback on what you think about the programs, and anything that you think may be a good improvement on what is already their. I already have a list of things that I want to improve (changeable background colour, adaptable encoding character set length, changing to .exe, spell checking, and lots more) which I will do if people like the programs.
Also feel free to ask me any question about how they work, or for any help that you need in using or setting up the programs.
