    I just use all the stuff that came with my OS. I'm too lazy to download/buy other stuff, which may as well be better than the junk now; and I'm too lazy to join the microsoft campaign.

    Default Re: What programs do you use for...

    Internet Browsing: Mozilla/Firefox/Opera
    Word processing: OpenOffice.org
    Text editing: Notepad/Wordpad
    Audio Playing: Winamp
    Ripping/encoding: don't really rip stuff
    Burning: don't really burn stuff anymore either
    Video playing: Media Player Classic
    Instant Messaging: YM/MSN
    Filesharing: Azureus mainly, BCDC++ too
    FTP: don't have any one program - they're all crap in Windows
    Virus Scanning: Mcafee, though I leave that disabled 99% of the time since I don't really need the CPU overhead of it - I'm careful enough to not get infected in the first place so I'm not worried
    Spyware detection: I don't bother usually, don't need to again I sound overly confident of myself, don't I?
    Software Firewall: Tiny Personal Firewall - more to block apps on my PC accessing out to certain things rather than the other way round to be honest.
    File Archiving: WinRAR


    Joel: Zonealarm is free, but when the TrueVector service it installs eventually dies and gobbles up 100% CPU cycles, don't say you weren't warned of a system reinstall being imminent
    Problems playing downloaded videos? Try CCCP
