| | Self Used and Trusted 10 Freeware [ S I Z E = \ " 3 \ " ] [ F O N T = \ " A r i a l \ " ] [ / F O N T ] [/SIZE]Do you want to secure and fit your computer or data with quality software without paying a cent. That dream is do-able in these tight times because a swathe of modern software positively wants to be free. Here are 10 free programs around I have been used and trusted. 1. Avast! www.avast.com Fail to install antiviral software on Windows and a worm or slice of spyware will invade your hard drive eventually. The highly praised free antiviral option Avast! offers automatic, around-the-clock protection without complexity. 2. Easeus Partition Master www.partition-tool.com As Partition Magic alternative, EASEUS Partition Master Home Edition is a FREE disk partitioning utility that offers a powerful range of functions such as resizing partitions, formatting partitions, copying partitions, creating new partitions, deleting partitions, hiding partitions, changing drive letters, setting active partitions, and a handful other functions. 3. StripMail www.dsoft.com.tr/stripmail Every bit as slick as its name, StripMail rids texts of awkward formatting and clutter, magically zapping the character ">" from forwarded e-mails for instance. The only minor minus, which also applies to Avast!, is that it requires registration. 4. OpenOffice.org www.openoffice.org So you find Microsoft Word buggy and expensive. Consider this open-source word-processing program, which offers all the essentials and rarely crashes. OpenOffice.org also makes producing PDFs a snap yet demands far less processing power than its rival. 5. SystemCare www.iobit.com A Click A Day For PC Clean, Repair, Protection & Optimization Advanced SystemCare Free (formerly Advanced WindowsCare Personal) has a one-click approach to helping protect, repair, clean, and optimize your PC. With over 20,000,000 downloads since 2006, this fantastic, award-winning, free program is a "must-have" tool for your computer, 100% safe and clean with no adware, spyware, or viruses. Don't waste money on expensive "registry cleaners" to fix your PC when Advanced SystemCare Free will repair, tune, and maintain it for you! 6. Chrome www.google.com/chrome Browser wars newcomer Google Chrome has compatibility issues with some mainstream sites. Still, Chrome is solid, streamlined, fast and different. Both web addresses and search strings go into the Omnibox, which processes information particularly quickly if you right-click and select paste and go. Even more of a winner than Firefox. 7. Skype www.skype.com Despite its remarkable cost-cutting capability, many entrepreneurs still overlook Skype. The communication software offers free phone calls to anyone in the world who is logged on to the system, which runs over the internet. The sound quality is better than you might think and improving. 8. ClipMagic www.clipmagic.com ClipMagic could use an interface makeover from Apple. Despite the inelegance of the clipboard extender, once mastered it is handy. It enables you to copy and keep multiple bits of written information or images then paste or merge them at whim. In a nutshell, ClipMagic spells control and convenience. 9. VLC media player www.videolan.org/vlc Nothing is more frustrating than receiving a video file and being unable to play it. Many users fiddle with codecs (encoding/decoding mechanisms). Simply downloading and firing up VLC automatically enables you to handle almost any video file format. 10. Deleted File Recovery http://www.easeus-deletedrecovery.com/ Whenever I encounter data loss because I mistakenly delete the files or folders,,I could retrieve them in short time with Deleted File Recovery. This data recovery software supports Windows 200/2003/XP/Vista, free us from trouble of data loss. Here are 10 free software I used Since I own the computer, why should we pay for the software. There are always freeware for your computer. -- bean123 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bean123's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/54560.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/vista-adm...on/1148289.htm http://forums.techarena.in |
