My favorite downloads......

[poltr1]

I'm cruising download.com, looking for new software utilities I can download for use on my system. So far, I downloaded the new version of AVG (note: AVG 7.x will no longer be able to get update files as of Wednesday! Or so they claim), WinZip, VLC Media Player, FLV Player, YouTube Downloader, Media Player Classic, Codec Pack 1, and IrfanView. I think most of these are listed in their list of top 25 downloads.

I also got Firefox, Thunderbird, Adobe Reader, Apple QuickTime Player, Note Tab Light, OpenOffice, WinMerge, Semagic, Rhapsody's player (I like being able to listen to up to 25 songs a month for free), and Winamp.

Is there anything else on this site -- or any other site -- that I should consider downloading? What are your favorites? I know I asked this before recently, but new and updated programs come out daily.

Videolan, the best media player
Picasa
Azureus

These I know have Windowz versions. The GPL stuff I run now is all Mac.

Videolan is the company that produces the VLC media player. I found that it doesn't play .mkv files very well.

Azureus is now known as Vuze. I don't want to mess with torrents until I know it's OK with the places I regularly download from.
