    All Macromedia programs are available for download from their website. 30-Day Trial ones which you can put a product key into if and when you decide to buy it.

    Anyway...

    Winamp
    Nero
    Trillian
    RealVNC
    Tiny Personal Firewall
    CloneCD
    WinTidy
    NetSwitcher
    DaemonTools
    Kazaa Lite

    Winamp 3 is the devil.

    Possibly, but has anyone noticed that it has to buffer WMA (windows media) files for about 3seconds before they play?

    Its quite annoying and the same thing happens when you fast forward.

    This NEVER happened in winamp 2!

    Also, any good sites to get some winamp skins?


    Best Software I ever Downloaded?

    ACDSee 32 2.41

    The best and fastest image viewer ever!

    30 day trial, then just uninstall and reinstall!

    Brillant program, got it about 5 years ago and im still using it!

    Ive tried others but they are so slow and hard to use.

    Yeah but Winamp 3 does have crossfading which makes it wicked at parties if you've got a laptop with a few hundred albums all hooked up!

    Debian.

    MrNuked, consider yourself nuked. We don't talk about warez here. It's not in the charter because only a retarded gibbon would think it's ok to talk about warez here. Don't do it again please.

    another good one is Webreaper.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 49 trunks


    WebReaper uses Microsoft's WinINet libraries

    wit httrack you get all the html and all the pic seprate you you can hack and chop all you like

    i normally just use the ones on winamp.com, there's over 3000 skins here (good site for wallpaper & skins for pretty much every popular app out there)

    lol, 60 uninstalls & 60 reinstalls... surely it'd be less hassle just to buy the damn thing.


    my personal favourite would have to be windows commander/total commander.

    essential if you're sick of navigating your hd in explorer


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,766 ✭✭✭hamster


    Yes, I like webreaper a lot. Resuming a "reap" can be troublesome at times. But is highly recommended. I have used it for 3 years.

    Nah, Its a nice quick un/install.

    the concept of downloading pirated software may be a bit complex for a retarded gibbon to understand, let alone consider the moral and legal issues involved.
    :o

    I liked adom. Roguelike game.

    I wish to dispute this :)

    Tiny little app, has a block of plug-ins for it too for various other formats.

    Bloody excellent piece of software.

    I'd say PSP 4 or other early versions were better image viewers. Very quick.
