"Simple program that does what it says."
Version: Caffeine 1.5
Pros
You don't have to move your mouse to keep your screen from sleeping. It does it behind the scenes so you are free to watch a movie etc without disturbance.
Cons
You have to remember to turn it off.
Summary
I have it on all my computers and smartphones.

"Stops unnecessary screen saver locks"
Version: Caffeine 1.5
Pros
Works as advertised...simple...straight forward...resides in the tool tray so you can see it is on and working
Cons
Changing default settings requires a command line entry instead of having an option menu in the program
Summary
It would have gotten 5 stars except getting it to use a different key stroke emulation (which I need it to do) requires a manual start from the command window with a toggle. I wanted it to auto start and with a different key stroke than the default because one of my programs uses that key stroke. Problem solved when I wrote a batch file and dropped that in the Windows Startup folder. But now IT has blocked all batch files so I have to start it manually each time. It needs a "preferences" option within the program to configure things that you want to change permanently. Making the user have to manually start the program from the command line each time you boot up detracts from an otherwise great little utility.
