george_seamons Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 I use winamp for music, it sounds much better than any other program I use. Don't forget FireFox too (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biketrialler Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 Having been a Winamp fan for years and years, when i set up my new shuttle xpc machine I installed it again. For some reason I only heard sound out of my front two speakers when in every other program i got the full 5.1 channels fine (Y) So I got the latest version of Media Player (10) and its wonderful. Fan of the music library system Msn messenger 7 is always fun! Ad aware is invaluable. dBpowerAMP Music Converter is handy for ripping CDs into mp3s. Nero works wonders for burning DVDs and CDs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delusional Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 Gaim - best multi-protocol IM client around for any platform. Firefox - the one browser to rule them all. I also can't live without eterm, aterm, gkrellm and sylpheed-claws. But they're not much use to you dirty windows users :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Phaze Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 Right, here we go - this is what I would have on an XP machine... Anti-Virus - Kaspersky Personal 5.0 Why? It's the best have by far - it can update every hour with new virus definitions... It also scans P2P file transfers - which other have lack. Chat - GAIM (Gnome AOL Instant Messenger) - an open-source chat program (mutli-platform). Supports: MSN/Yahoo/ICQ/IRC and a whole host of others..... very very good. Security - Windows Update - get the latest updates, as they are essential (Y)) Get SP2 too - if your key is *cough* blacklisted, then PM me for a genuine one (which works with SP2...) Music - Winamp or iTunes File Sharing - Shareaza - the big daddy of all P2P programs on Windows platform Graphics - Photoshop CS Spyware Protection - Spybot Search & Destroy - a program highly recommended by many professional websites and magazines. I use it on Windows, and works a charm :() Internet - FireFox - I don't think I need to say anymore..... CD/DVD Authoring - Nero Burning Rom - highly praised by many :S) Defragmentation of Hard Disk - O&O Software Defrag Professional Edition - works far better than the native Microsoft one. Find a serial or something on Google.... Any other applications? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 I used Aqua dock for a bit, but it kept popping up in games and being generally annoying (And taking up resources). Now I just have everything I need in the Quicklaunch bit (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Phaze Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 DJ Phaze, why do you know so much (Y) lol ← You'd be supprised how much you know about something when it's been your hobby for years...... Ask yourself random questions about bike - and you'll see what I mean... you'll soon jog your memory about bike facts which you had forgotten.... Like what was the hot Rock Shox product of 1998? How much Pace Race forks were when they first hit the market? How wide handle bars used to be, compared to now, etc etc... When did free-riding and Street start appearing? And digging around old MTB magazines is fun too - you laugh at the ridiculous price of what was considered *amazing* bleeding-edge technology... :: Phaze :: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
