Apps
Irfanview:
Best freeware graphic view you can download. It can open just about every picture type there is. There are even plug-ins for it that allow you to open other file types such as real audio and mp3s. Very small file size and not bloated like many other graphic viewers. Reminds me of the old lview pro.

Winamp:
Great skinnable mp3 player loaded with features.

AOL Instant Messanger:
Send instant messages to all your friends and family. Not as bloated as some other IM client programs.

mIRC:
One of the best Internet Relay Chat clients there is.

Flashget:
Allows you to download files off the web quicker and resume broken downloads. Works by splitting a file into multiple parts which are downloaded faster than 1 big file.

Winzip:
File Compression which allows you to open the many .zip files you download off the web. You can also create .zip files with this utility.

AnimMagic:
Great animated gif making software.

Gaming
Counterstrike:
Great mod for Half-life which lets you play as a terrorist or a counter-terrorist. Storm the Front!!.

All Seeing Eye:
The best server listing software there is. Handles large server lists much better than gamespy.

A Tractor:
Online Multiplayer Game with learning curve but is real fun to play. Slowly build up your wealth and build up an empire. Make sure you read the online manual before you start playing or you could screw yourself over good.

TetriNET 2:
Play tetris online with up to 5 other players. New special blocks such as attack immunity and column clear.
