Here are some of my favorite Windows apps that I can't just live without :P

CCleaner (freeware): I love this app. I've never used a registry cleaner that does this good a job, with minimal risk. And it's fast.

The GIMP (Open Source): Awesome free photo editing program. I use it all the time. Also available on Linux and Mac.

http://www.gimp.org

CPU-z (Freeware): Great app for monitoring your CPU frequency, especially useful when overclocking.

CrystalXP (Freeware): Nice desktop shell replacement application. When you're bored with the Windows look, or fed up because you can't control exactly how you want it to look and function, this is nice to have. Just be sure to read and follow the installation/unistallation directions and you'll be golden.

Those are just a few of the apps I can't live without. There are plenty more, and I'm always trying out some newer ones as well. What apps do you like? :P

i dont really use to many apps....I.E for my browser..i also use firefox but rarely..Utorrent for my DL'r also daemon tools and power iso for loading images..ive used CCleaner in the past and like it

cou z is great but i dont use it often either...*laughing out loud*..im a loser..i guess i just dont use the puter much for anything but gaming...i use it more at work for internet browsing tho...*laughing out loud*

I do love Wikipedia tho...but the accuracy is questionable

i know its not an app but i can find almost anything there
