CCleaner - Cleans up tons of temporary files. Us this before a spyware scan or a defrag. Free!
SuperAntiSpyware - I think this is the best spyware scanner/cleaner out there. Free! Make sure you get the free version at the bottom of
the page.
Malwarebytes - What a great tool to run after CCleaner and SAS. Again, free.
Avira AntiVir Personal- This free version of Avira's antivirus software is great. It's picked up some stuff that AVG couldn't handle. We're
currently looking to become a reseller for them. There's a pop-up window each day when the software does its update. Just click the "OK" or
close the window.
Defraggler - From the makers of CCleaner (above) come a new disk defragmentation program. Best of all, it's free!

OpenOffice -This is a full replacement for Microsoft Office and is completely Free! This software has everything except the email, but there's
a great (very much free) solution for that with Mozilla Thunderbird
CutePDF - So, you need to print to a PDF but don't want to shell out the $450 for Adobe Acrobat Pro. No problem. This (again, free) tool will
install as a printer. You'll now be able to print from any Windows program to your new printer (a PDF file) Cool, huh? Lastly, if you're using the
OpenOffice from above, you don't even need this as OpenOffice allows you to save as a PDF.

Get Back to the "old" search in XP - Installed Office 2007 that needed the new Windows Desktop Search (WDS)? Long for the older "search
companion"? This article tells you how to get it back.
Vista Service Pack 2 - If you run Vista, get this. It helps.
ImageResizer - From Microsoft. Right click images to resize them easily.
