Pc Cleaner
AVG Anti-Virus
Together with Ad-aware, Spybot-S&D, and ZoneAlarm, you have the exact (if not better) power and security features you would find in Norton SystemWorks or McAfee's RedZone Suite (both $60, plus cost of upadates)
A definite consideration also must be WinRAR It is more flexible, easier to use, and compresses better than WinZIP
Oh, and if you're lookin for an excellent FTP look no further than WS_FTP LE It's definitely the best (free) FTP client I've gotten my mitts on
Total Cost for System & Security Utilites, as well as a Full Office Suite: $30 _
Trang 2Oh man, if I can in some way contribute to a sticky, my life as I know it will be complete
Edit: Wow, it is a sticky already haha
Another good program I use that performs a multitude of tasks is System Mechanic
4 by Iolo Technologies It cleans the registry, finds junk files, etc It is rather
expensive however, but I would say the free trial is worth it, just for cleaning the registry and finding junk files There are ways around the 30-day trial, but I'm pretty sure we can't discuss that here (arrr matey)
This month's issue of PC World is "Trouble Free PC:Unbeatable tools to help you protect data, remove junk, stop crashes"
Its worth checking out, it offers plenty of information Their website probably has most of the info too

If you have many programs opened at a time,
use ManageDesk - www.managedesk.com
For today it while the best
And I have seen a lot of a similar software
Even there, where wrote and shouted that our program rulez
and that Linux has a rest, actually it appeared such sh
And this program is very cool

Trang 3Go here for the ultimate boot CD.Hard drive utilities,memtest,disk cloning and much more on one CD
Gohere so you can reuse those floppy's
Belarc Advisor is a great little program that displays your computer info as a web page,complete with serial #'s in case you have a Friend that bought a computer without a windows disk.It also shows the windows updates installed as well as ones that need reinstall just by clicking on it
Eraser 5.7 is a really good eraser/shredder and does several passes so you can be sure info is truly gone.It adds Erase to the right click menu so It's always
handy,with options on the number of passes
MSCONFIG for all the windows 2000 users
The Firmware Page is a good place to get that new firmware.It also has a utility there that identifies all your current firmware so there is no doubt you are looking for the right ones
IE Spellchecker is great if you don't have office.It installs itself in Internet Explorer for ease of use
Just a few from my favorites
Edited to add a couple more

Not a program, but a plugin:

I'm not sure if this program has been mentioned yet or not, but if so then shoot me Anyway its called CCleaner or Crap Cleaner:
http://www.ccleaner.com/ and it will clean every useless item imaginable out of your computer in less then a second Anyway I could tell you everything it cleans out, but that would take too long and you could probably read it all on the site faster then I can type it I'll give you a few screenshots of the program Maybe that'll give you all a better idea Anyway, this has been immeasurably helpful to me
in cleaning out all kinds of stuff out of my computer I think I've spoken enough The app speaks for itself; couldn't do without it
