Must have Windows applications

Here is my ever-growing list of must-have software applications for Windows (XP, 2000, 2003). It will continuously be updated over time :

1. 7zip - the free equivalent to Winzip.
2. Videolan - small footprint media player for all your movies, music and sound files.
3. Foxit Reader - a free, quicker loading equivalent to Adobe Acrobat Reader. Acrobat reader has grown to a overgrown pot-belly fat application. It makes me nauseous to wait for it to load all those libraries when all I need is to quick view a PDF file.
4. Cute PDF Writer - a free printer driver to create PDF files. No need for a printer, and no need for Adobe Acrobat. If you pay bills online always create a PDF printout for record keeping.
5. Mozilla Firefox - Do NOT install any new versions of Internet Explorer if you don't have to. Firefox is quicker and less of a headache down the road.
