Hello fellow programmers,
I have two big semester projects in where I am free to do anything I want, I don't want to do a game since I don't like developing games but I'm looking into making security software, useful widgets, networking, or basically any useful programs that a user might need. It can be an intermediate-advanced level project, I will be programming using Visual Studio 2008 with C++/C#. I'm not looking for a complete idea and for anyone to give me a full project but just some ideas I can build on or that can spark other ideas because I have nothing in mind right now.
