freeware recomendations/advise

[ABanzhof]

i havent been playing with wireshark for long but im soo glad to have it, anytime i have a feeling there might be anything fishy going on i can see in real time ALL information moving to and from my pc, it seems crazy to me that at a system of tracking packet transference isnt already integrated into most os, but thats just my take on the situation, and also firefox would seem like a bad example to me because of the abundance of high qualety web browsers on the market today.

for the second part there "half" was a very very rough estimate the fact that you had several examples from my list to me is conformation of the correctness of my statement. admittedly i could have been more clear with my wording, the word half should have been the word several

mplayer is better than VLC and plays more file formats too
I use Turbo pad as a text editor.
cute PDF to generate PDF documents, (just print the document to a PDF file, -like adobe pdf printer but free

I use gadwin print screen (I have the hot key to ctrl-print screen, so I can still press print screen to get the whole desktop alt-print screen to get the active window, and alt print screen and I select a box, like the sniping tool that now comes with windows, but better as you don't have to load it, it always runs in the background.

I don't know about you all, but between “-berry120- and –Abanshof-” I think I just witness an episode of “The Big Bang Theory”.
