PCWorld Reviewers' Favorite Files: July 2010July is a busy month for travel and vacations, and our reviewers proved this even while working hard. They gave the thumbs-up to a laptop battery optimizer and a portable encryption utility, for starters. Better system benchmarking and tune-up tools made favorable impressions, as always. A sound enhancement program makes movies and music sound better--perhaps even on a tinny laptop playing by the pool (although we won't say that was one of our tests).
