Free Software

In that never ending search for the Holy Grail of Internet software "Free" i have had a couple of successes lately

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_free_and_open_source_software_packages

Wikipedia has this extensive listing of free and open source software. This is a good place to start.

It did not list a couple of my favorites like these:

AntiVir antivirus software http://www.free-av.com/

MyDefrag a most excellent defrag and HD optimizer http://www.mydefrag.com/

Openoffice.org free word processor, spreadsheet, database software etc.
http://www.openoffice.org/

TweakNow.com reg cleaner and startup manager
http://www.tweaknow.com/

Filezilla FTP file transfer software i use a lot
http://filezilla-project.org/

Many of these I found by readig PCMag.com's article on "The Best Free Software of 2009"

Any Itunes haters out there? This little program allows you to do all the things that Apple will not allow you to.

Thanks Toyo those are good ones.

Here is one i found when i needed a paint program to change the colors in a bit map image.

Paint.net is a upgrade for the Microsoft Windows paint program with some of the nicer tools found in photoshop.
It is open source and a donation ware program where you can voluntarily help keep the upgrades comming.

I needed the magic wand feature to select a particular color and replace it with another that this software includes.
