      Google Chrome

      Well enough people have used it and said they like it for me to be able to recommend it here.

      Its party piece is running each tab as a separate process. Essentially this means that if one tab messes up its jsut that tab that goes down, rather than the whole browser.

      It also has a super fast javascript engine (called V8) that is very good for running things like gmail, google apps etc. (no surprises there.)

      Overall its also a very fast browser that is certainly worth a try (even if you really really really like FF/opera.)

          Kind of like lightroom, but free. A rather pleasing app overall.

            Convert is a free and easy to use unit conversion program that will convert the most popular units of distance, temperature, volume, time, speed, mass, power, density, pressure, energy and many others, including the ability to create custom conversions!

            Use this all the time.

                winrar, its got to be one of the best archiver type programs out there. Will compress/decompress nearly any format (every format i've ever come across at least.) Loads of features, easy to use and free. Not a lot more you could ask for really.

                Remus,
                Its not free I payed 30 something $ for it, but its worth it.

                  I have it for free too.
                  The only thing that happens is that it reminds me it would be good to buy it. But it has not stop working since I started to use it.

                      Perhaps it is the education version im thinking of, as i certainly got it for free (and legally.)

                      Edit: sorry, i didnt read your post properly, i thought you were talking about houdini mateo.

                      Just to clarify, ive had this same version for quite a while, and as juan said it just give you this little popup thing every time you open a file. A little bit annoying but i can live with it.
