Samba Dude .. set up right you can do LDAP and AD.

Freshmeat.net for stuff beyound SourceForge.

sandra Soft for benchmarks

let's see... virtualdub (more than free, opensource) is indispensable for me... like irfanview... and mediaplayer classic (real/quicktime one)... and hmm... what else... WinISD(bet nobody cares about this one :) ), GIMP, hornresp, bittornado, speedfan (like mobo mon), openoffice.org... and winamp with jammix enhancer :) these are the free stuff i use... (i'm not counting the "other" type of software, like 3dsmax... which is like air to me)

..and dang, i forgot i use vlc too... must have slipped my mind.. this app is great...

abi coder. (abisoft.net) Nothing like files with 448bit encryption. Oh yeah... ITS FREE TOO!

Open Office.
