    Some programs worth considering - and it is always good to support smaller developers.

    Thumbs up for giving a short description of the programms and for picking just one in each category and not one thousand.

    Good list, but some choices are in my opinion inferior (to other freeware). Here is my recommendations #. Original = My choice (notes) 6. CamStudio = Wink 7. Combined Community Codec Pack (CCCP) = ffdshow (tryout) + QuickTime Alternative + Real Alternative (I don't recommend Codec Packs they cause more trouble than they are worth) 11. Digsby = Miranda (Just personal prefrence, I want my IM client to be 'light' take minimal RAM and just Chat features none of the bloat/extras) 13. DVD Shrink = Handbrake (DVD Shrink hasn't been updated in ages, Handbrake has more modern codecs like Playstation 3, iPhone, etc) 19. GIMP = Artweaver (Much easier to use, very similar to Photoshop) 24. MeGUI = SUPER(C) (Easier to use) 29. Notepad++ = ConTEXT (Lots of cool highlighters) 33. PDF XChange Viewer = FoxIT (I actually haven't tried PDF XChange, but I've used FoxIT for a while and love it, no reason to try something else so far) 34. PDFCreator = CutePDF (I haven't tried PDFCreator, but love CutePDF) 43. SUPERAntiSpyware = SpyBot S&D (lets face it SpyBot is the de-facto standard) 46. TUGZip = 7Zip (simply the best archiver ever) PS: Did we really need 2 differnet memory testing tools - should have left one off and made the list 50 programs :)
