Apps you cant live without


Question

I apologise if this has been done before.

I am just about to reinstall system and would just like to know what software you all install on a fresh install that you would not be without.

To make it easier if you list system apps first. :D

I am really intrested in your thoughts on this i have my faves but curious about the rest of you.

Thanks in advance

Firefox

Yahoo Messenger (for the Launchcast, I've had others, Launch is the best)

Spybot Search & Destroy

AdAware

RegSeeker

This might seem strange, but WeatherDepot desktop weather..

BitDefender AntiVirus (free and better,in my opinion, than AVG and Avast)
