SharePoint Event Handler Manager: It allows administrator to browse, add, edit and remove SharePoint event handlers from any list or web. This SharePoint solution provides two features that enable admins to play with event handlers from within SharePoint interface.
SharePoint Application Pool Utility: This small utility is exclusively for administrators to change the Application Pool of SharePoint web application. SharePoint 2010 doesn’t allow us to change the IIS Pool directly from IIS Manager as it stores the mapping information in its configuration database because it uses that mapping in administrative jobs. So this utility helps in creation of IIS Pools and also is assignment of existing pools for SharePoint Web Applications.
