Does anyone have any idea what ConfigFree (http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_dtlViewDL.jsp?soid=627233&moid=369451&BV_SessionID=@@@@1763319029.1091216831@@@@&BV_EngineID=ccceadcmeekjidecgfkceghdgngdgll.0&ct=DL) does?

I installed it and it's a collection of handy little tools.

Connectivity Doctor:
Shows you a picture of your network connection and indicates where there are problems.

Profile Settings:
Let's you create profiles for your wireless connections.

Search for Wireless:
Shows you the wireless access points in your area on a radar-like graph with the stronger signals closer to the center. It's like WiFiFoFum without logging.

ConfigFree Launcher:
This one is a mystery to me. This launches "ConfigFree" the namesake app for the entire set of utilities. When you tap it you get a notification that says "ConfigFree is launched," but what does it do?

Has anyone found any of these to be truly useful or should I uninstall them?

The Mystery of ConfigFree revealed!

When I realized what the ConfigFree Launcher was I had to slap myself on the forehead and say "DOH!"

When you run Launcher it puts a tray icon in the lower right corner of your screen that gives you access to the other three ConfigFree applications (which I previously described).
