By default Windows hides WEP and WPA keys stored on your PC to connect to various Wi-Fi networks, but freeware utility WirelessKeyView lists them for you. When you’ve forgotten that Wi-Fi network key, run WirelessKeyView to see all the networks your Windows PC has ever connected to using its default Wireless Zero Configuration mechanism. This utility doesn’t reveal keys stored by third-party network connection software. Delete keys from old networks that you no longer need, and easily copy keys to the clipboard to send or save. WirelessKeyView is a free download for Windows XP and Vista. Click here to download WirelessKeyView.

Nerf Assult

Now this isn’t really the toy that you and your merry pack of colleagues should get while working in the office as it certainly won’t catch the affection of your boss’ eye. The USB MSN Missile Launcher now functions with MSN, allowing you to take aim at your friends on MSN thanks to the webcam retrofitted onto the USB Missile Launcher. There is a 5 meter range with this thing, and having just three missiles per round isn’t going to cut it, so you will need to take aim carefully. Guess you can finally bring a semblance of the Worms game into the office (or home) with the USB MSN Missile Launcher. Interested office juveniles can pre-order a set for themselves today, and shipping will commence on the 18th this month. The USB MSN Missile Launcher retails for $49.00 and comes with three foam missiles, while an additional pack of 3 missiles will set you back by $3.

New Laser Mouse

Not much info on this new version of Microsoft’s laser mouse, but we do have pics. It seems that the finger and thumb grooves have been removed and the surfaces have been smoothed all over. The thumb inset appears to be much deeper, and the thumb buttons have also been streamlined to be thinner.
