This is just a tiny list of all the Freeware i use on a daily basis.
| Text Editors |
EditpadLite
from JGsoft
Similar to Metapad, but with a opera style tabbed interface.
Metapad
For those of you who dont mind not having tabbed interfaces. This is
the absolute best.
| Web Browsers |
CrazyBrowser
Basically uses the IE rendering engine but has built in popup killer
and opera style tabbed interface. Also supports opening groups
ofwebpages at a time.
| FTP Daemon |
WarFTP
I've found this to be the best FTP server. Pay or not pay.
| FTP Client |
FileZilla
A very feature rich, FREE FTP client. If you don't want to pay for an
FTP client, this is the best there is.
| Instant Messengers |
Trillian
I did however buy the Pro version just because i love their work.
| Newsreaders |
GrabIt
Very useful for binaries.... I use PowerGrab for everything, but nzb's
I use GrabIt.
FreeAgent
Best newsreader around.
PowerGrab and
PowerPost
The Best Free Binaries Leecher and Posting Program on this Earth.
| Media Players |
VLCMedia Player
The Ultimate Cross Platform Media Player, plays everything under
thesun, low CPU usage.
| Audio Tools |
UniversalFront
A tool for en- de- and transcoding. Simple, awesome.
Audacity
Open Source audio editor, my SoundForge replacement.
| Website IDE |
Nvu
While being far from completion, I use it to manage my website now.
Andit does what I need it to do, just fine I think.
| Burning Software |
CDBurnerXPPro
Looks like a Nero clone but it's free. You can't beat that!
DVDShrink
Shrink your DVD9's into DVD5's
DVDDecrypter
Rip DVD's. Also works as an awesome lightweight ISO/CUE/NRG ( and almost any other common format ) image burner.
ImgTool Classic
Makes ISO's of any directory. Just a front end for mkisofs.exe. The new one needs nero to work.
Daemon Tools
All purpose image mounter. Makes up to 4 virtual drives on your system.
DaeMount
The UI for Daemon tools is a little clunky. This is a front end which will give you all the nice Windows Explorer integration.
| PDF Tools |
FoxIt PDF Reader
Definitely the fastest PDF reader ever. Adobe Reader is bloated as all hell.
PDFCreator
Print any document and make it a PDF. Goodbye Adobe Acrobat Pro!
| Blogging Tool |
w.Bloggar
Absolutely good blogging tool. The reason I like it, is because it ain't written in C#. I hate interepreted languages.
| Programming IDE |
PSPad
Absolutely awesome text editor with project support and FTP support. Great for website editing and actually just working in ANY project.
| Image Editing |
The Gimp
I know I don't have to introduce this. Just so everyone knows I DO use it.
| Office Replacement |
OpenOffice
Another one that needs no introduction. Good enough for me!
| RSS Reader |
NewsGator
Technically not an app. It's a free service, but I have found it to be THE best RSS reader EVER!
