Guest Ret.Maj.Xander=US= Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Good list. Although Windows 7 has scheduled defrags weekly for my HD, works great. And I prefer Revo Uninstaller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RET.CW4.ThievingSix=US= Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 Photoshop, i cant live without it. CCleaner is also really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gamerk2 Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Agree on CC Cleaner, disagree on Registry Defrags (too much potential for a screw up, for such a small gain). Even for HD de-frags, I only do so after MAJOR installs/uninstall periods, as HD's are now fast enough where defragging isn't a huge concern.

Guest RET.SSgt.Haterade=US= Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 [URL='http://eraser.heidi.ie/index.php']Eraser[/URL] - Very good program for secure deletion of sensitive files. It also can quickly wipe unused hard disk space. [URL='http://www.partition-tool.com/personal.htm']EASEUS Partition Master[/URL] - Better than the Windows 7 tool for working with partitions imo. [URL='http://www.7-zip.org/']7-Zip[/URL] - Best free archival software. PeaZip is a close second. [URL='http://www.gtopala.com/siw-download.html']System Information for Windows (SIW)[/URL] - If you ever need to know anything about the hardware and/or software you have installed on your rig, this thing will tell you. [URL='http://www.superantispyware.com/download.html']SUPERAntiSpyware[/URL] - Self-explanatory [URL='http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php']Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware[/URL] - Another great malware program. I use both it and SUPERAntiSpyware. That's about it for now. [URL='http://www.techsupportalert.com/']Gizmos Freeware Reviews[/URL] is a great place to find awesome free programs for just about anything.
