    Mine would have to be Spybot, this has lead me on a rapid learning curve about internet secruity. Without it i would never have discovered firewalls , host files, anti trojans and my favrite browser Firebird. This is the most incredible piece of software ever and i have told all my friends (who dont give a dam and end up with viruses and crying to me to fix there systems) C screen shot

    My most cherished piece of software. Well, everything on my machine is expendable EXCEPT my MS Flight Simulator 2004.

    Security software comes and goes, my word processors change, but Flight Simulator is always there. I'm proud to say I've crash landed all over the country with it.

    Forgot to mention GoBack, which does the job better than System Restore.

    If programmer's tools are allowed in this thread, I want to mention a tool that is not cheap but to me worth every dollar:

    Borland Delphi

    If you're a little versed in programming language, you can create anything you want with it. And you learn every day.

    Regards

    1. CCleaner is so quiet. I always forget I have it. That's why I keep the icon on my desktop to remember it.
    CCleaner was the very first solution for cleaning my cookies, the way I like it.
    2. ZoneAlarm Free isn't so quiet as CCleaner, but I like it, because of its simplicity.
    3. Thunderbird, because it requires only two clicks (open & close) to remove all my spam-emails in a few seconds.
    4. Firefox with its brilliant Find-in-This-Page function, which I couldn't find in any other browser upto now.
    5. IZArc for unzipping files and replacing winZIP and winRAR.
    6. MS Excel 2000, an excellent spreadsheet.
    7. ShadowUser, which I don't have yet, will be #1 on the list of my favorite softwares for many reasons.

    The rest of the softwares, didn't impress me in anyway.
