The following is a collected list of programs/tools for Neopets which make it easier to navigate the website or help you understand the game better.
Neopets
Neopets Premium
Not a program, but a whole new login and playing experience. Neopets Premium is a paid service provided by Neopets.
Neopets Toolbar
A toolbar Neopets provides to users, offering quicklinks.
Outside Neopets
While there are programs you can use outside of Neopets, it should be noted no user is allowed to use outside coding to play the game for them, or to gain an unfair advantage. The NeoDex does not endorse cheating of any kind, and doing so will either get a user suspended for a period of time or Frozen.
Mozilla Firefox
Mozilla Firefox is a web broswer. It has gained popularity with it's easy to use interface, and more advanced options than other Internet browsers. Extensions, or add on programs, can be added to it to change how Firefox displays web pages. For example, some extensions can block banner ads and pop-ups placed within websites, including Neopets.
ImproveNeo
ImproveNeo began as a Greasemonkey script being developed by Littlemac from the NeoDaq forums. With the script, users can remove ads, have stocks recommended to them, dynamically look-up Shop Wizard prices, have the script alert them to under-priced items, and hide user's shop descriptions so as to make buying items easier. On (need date), ImproveNeo joined up with the item database of NeoItems.net, adding a new dimesion to searching for items by adding price listings.
The first version of the script, 0.1, was released to the general public on February 19, 2006. Since then, it has been updated many times, with 0.8 being the latest version. Because of the features ImproveNeo provides, the legality of the program is debatable, and should be used with caution.
NeoHax
NeoHax (also known as NeopetsFix) is a Greasemonkey script that does the following.
- Adds links to a users guild, shop, and petpages to the sidebar.
- Adds an inventory button that shows an altered version of the inventry page in a pop up (Only shows item images, no sidebar)
- Shows the Jelly World forum on the NeoBoards
- Lets a user change your Avatar from the SHH
- Lets a user turn off fonts.
- Lets a user enter custom interests on their User Lookup.
- Disables NeoMail (A Glitch, must disable Greasemonkey to use Neomail again)
NeoDaq.xls
The NeoDaq.xls is an Excel Spreadsheet created and maintained by the NeoDaq community used to keep track of a users Stock Market portfolio. This comprehensive tool tracks all a users buys and sales and calculates numerous statistics. The legality of the spreadsheet was questioned at one point, but was found to be acceptable due to the fact it does not actually automate anything, but only organizes and tracks information.
A note about macros: Excel files (.xls) have the capability of containing possibly harmful files called macros. You should never download and run these unless you trust the source.
Shop.xls
The Shop.xls is another excel spreadsheet to come out of NeoDaq. created by abreev8, the Shop.xls tracks a users shop and SDB making shopping and restocking easier. Users can add a list of items they want to stock in their shop and how many of them they want to keep in stock and the shop.xls will mark what items need to be bought to refill a shop and much more.
To get the latest version, go to the Shop.xls thread in the Neodaq forums. Version 2 of the spreadsheet is currently in the works and promises more useful features.
A note about macros: Excel files (.xls) have the capability of containing possibly harmful files called macros. You should never download and run these unless you trust the source.
ImproveNeo Designer
Created by "Littlemac" of the Neodaq Forums. It is an online tool that helps you design a users shop page.

During the Altador Plot, certain users of Neopets were able to decode the workings of the stars and present programs for people to use, which allowed people to find their stars better.
