Free tdi software for windows

TDIMon - TCP/IP monitor TDIMon is a program which allows you to monitor TCP and UDP activity on your local system. It is the most powerful tool available for tracking down network-related configuration problems and analyzing application network usage.
TDIMon gets its name from the fact that it monitors activity at the Transport Driver Interface (TDI) level of networking operations in the operating system kernel. This is the interface to protocol stacks such as TCP and UDP. Thus, the I/O activity shown by TDIMon corresponds to TDI-formatted commands. Most TDI commands have direct correspondence with WinSock (the Windows socket API) functions, and thus are easy to interpret. For documentation on TDI and the commands shown in TDIMon, please see the Windows 2000 DDK, available for free download from Microsofts web site.
On Windows NT and Windows 2000, simply execute the TDIMon program file (tdimon.exe) and TDIMon will immediately start capturing TCP/IP activity. To run TDIMon on Windows 95 you must get the WinSock2 update from Microsoft. Note that if you run TDIMon on Windows NT/2000 TDImon.exe must be located on a non-network drive and you must have administrative privilege. On Windows NT and Windows 2000 TDIMon will only show remote addresses for endpoints opened after it has started. However, if you purchase and install TCPView Pro from Winternals Software, the TDIMon driver, which is shared between TCPView Pro and TDIMon, is installed at boot time so that you see all remote addresses.
On Windows 95 and Windows 98 TDIMon must install its driver and requires a reboot to activate. To uninstall the TDIMon driver, use the File|Uninstall menu entry.
As events are printed to the output, they are tagged with a sequence number. If your system generates TCP/IP activity faster than TDIMon is capable of collecting and displaying, gaps in the sequence numbers may result. All TDI operations are asynchronous in nature, and if an operation finishes after other operations are initiated, the sequence number of the completion is shown in the Result column in the form "Status Code-Completion Sequence #". For example, if an operation begins at sequence number 1, and another operation (tagged with sequence 2) initiates and completes before the first operations completion, the first operation will show "SUCCESS-3" in its Result column.
Menus, hot-keys, or toolbar buttons can be used to clear the window, save the monitored data to a file, search output, and change the window font. Each time you exit TDIMon it remembers the position of the window, the widths of the output columns, the font selection, configured filters, and the time-stamp mode.

A free software for viewing, monitoring and analyzing events in the Event Log. Event Log Explorer is a free software for viewing, monitoring and analyzing events recorded in Security, System, Application and another logs of Microsoft Windows NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista operating systems.
Thanks to Event Log Explorer, monitoring and analysis of events recorded in Security, System, Application and other logs of Windows operating systems gets much faster and really effective.
Event Log Explorer helps you to quickly browse, find and report on problems, security warnings and all other events that are generated within Windows.

Main features:
Multiple-document or tabbed-document user interface depending on user preferences
Event Log Explorer provides you with 2 user interface types. Multiple-document interface (MDI) allows you to open unlimited number of event logs and place them all inside the main window of Event Log Explorer. Tabbed-document interface (TDI) allows you to open unlimited number of event logs and features the best way of navigation between logs.
Favorites computers and their logs are grouped into a tree
With Event Log Explorer you can view event logs on different computers. For your convenience you can group your computers in a tree. Then you can simply select the desired event log from the desired computer , and it will be opened immediately.
Viewing event logs and event logs files
With Event Log Explorer you can open event logs as event log files. To open an event log file, just select File -> Open Log File.
Archiving event logs
Archiving event logs is very important task. Very large event logs affect system performance, but administrators must be ale to analyze past events. The appropriate solution is to limit the size of event logs, and backup event logs on regular basis. Event Log Explorer allows you to save opened event log as an event log file manually or automatically.
Event descriptions and binary data are in the log window
Unlike standard Event Viewer, Event Log Explorer allows you to view the description and binary data of each event without additional commands. All descriptions are displayed in the Event Description box of log window. You can close this box if you dont need to read event descriptions. You can also display event descriptions in the event list as a column.
Event list can be sorted by any column and in any direction
Event Log Explorer allows you to sort event list by any column - just click on the column header, and event list will be re-sorted immediately. If you click on the column twice - the event list will be resorted in the backward direction.
Advanced filtering by any criteria including event description text
You can easily filters events in the list by any criteria. The criteria are reusable - you can save them as a file and apply for another event logs.
Quick Filter feature allows you to filter event log in a couple of mouse clicks
It is very easy to filter event log by a single column value. Simply click right mouse button on a cell that will be considered as a filter criteria and you will be prompted to filter on this criteria. E.g. if you click in column "Type" on a cell "Information", you can set a quick filter on Type="Information" criteria.
Log loading options to pre-filter event logs
You can pre-filter event log when its opening. This will reduce memory consumption, increase performance and make log view clear.
Fast search by any criteria
With Event Log Explorer you can easily search for event that meets a certain criteria. Just use View ->Find command to start search. To find a next event that meets this criteria, please use View ->Find Next command.
Fast navigation with bookmarks
Bookmarks allow you to mark an event in Log View and then you can easily return to this event.
Compatibility with well-known event knowledgebases
You can get more information about event in the public event knowledgebases. Event Log Explorer supports EventID.net and Microsoft knowlegebases.
Sending Event Log to printer
Unlike standard Windows Event Viewer, Event Log Explorer can print event logs. Print options let you select from several styles of print.
Export log to different formats
You can export your event logs to other formats. At the time, Event Log Explorer supports export to HTML, tab-separated and Excel documents.
Note: Free for personal use only.
