I'm looking for any version of a translator program called PEX (Pc Explore), there is no official site and, for some reason, it's almost impossible to find.
If anyone can help me saying where to download it, it will be greatly appreciated.

is it a language translator app (ie. Italian to English), or a file translator app (ie. PC to MAC)?

It's an app that can make you change the language yourself on any program.
For example in the english language of Nero there is written "COPY" you can translate it your self in italian to "COPIA".

Most MS Window apps do seem to support l10n and i18n. This would seem to be a very long and boring job to have to change every button text though.
This would be another fine example of why closed apps lack the benefits of the open-source/free software community.
I'll look around.

Did not find that app yet. These might be or might not be useful for you.

LocalizeRC (http://www.codeproject.com/tools/localizerc.asp) Freetools, LocalizeRC is very easy to understand and makes it possible to create a translation within minutes!
WizTom (http://www.wizart.com/en/wizstart/wizwin.htm) is the main environment used to manage the localization projects for all of your projects

Some more utilities, though there can be copyright issues to deal with when using these tools (though somehow I suspect not too much sleep will be lost)
p.s. I hope this thread aint being tracked cause its kinda peaceful around here at the moment ;)

Thanks for the memory jarring GoSlow. I Just remembered another similar app as the ones you posted. I've used this app years ago to build customized AOL IMS clients.
