Oh, I do have something to add, my apologies:

Super, video conversion, any format to any other format. Great for mobile/PSP style conversions. And free.

SUPER © .

Scroll down to near bottom, select "Start downloading Super now"
Next page, click Download and Use half way down.
Download link right at bottom.
Long winded, but worth it for decent freeware conversion software.

PDFCreator is an alternative PDF printer, but the Vista support sucks a bit - PDFCreator | pdfforge.org

Opera 9.5 has been released today, so it's no longer a release candidate.

on a whim I downloaded this and installed the latest OpenBSD and FreeBSD images in two virtual machines. the only thing I found picky was how to get the networking, err, working in my Vista Ultimate 64b. Because of Vista's shitness, I had to disable UAC and make my regular user an admin so I could configure the network bridge needed to get the networking of the VM's to work without going insane with rage.

There is a trick to getting all elements of the bridge to work properly, ie VM's see the interweb and eachother and the host system. If you guys want, I can do a condensed writeup for FH based around Vista.

Some of the unix hosts networking config seem pretty damn hard though if one were not used to such a thing o0

Going to keep this topic running with updates on important popular driver updates for nVidia Forceware, ATI Catalyst, Sound Blaster etc.
I'll concentrate on Vista drivers unless requested otherwise, mostly as most XP drivers are mature enough as they stand.

So,
Nvidia, for the Geforce 8/9 series cards v 175.19 :
Vx64 GeForce Release 175
Vx86 GeForce Release 175

Creative Labs update X-Fi drivers for Vista restoring Dolby and DTS functions:
Creative Worldwide Support

AMD Catalyst:
AMD GAME Drivers & Tools

XXClone

I'm putting this here after i used it to overcome a problem i had. I had to split a software raid 0 (2 sata drives stripped) but needed to back up the system to a useable state and restore it to 1 of the sata drives from the old raid array.

After trying to find a cloner that saw the raid array as a single disc and not 2 discs, I came accross this and tried it. It installs and clones the system from within windows. So all the software for running the array is running at the time. Its fast, did about 40 gig clone in 45 mins with system up and running. 2 clones later, here i am. Deffo something I'd recommend.

ImgBurn Great CD burning app useful for creating ISO's from disks and writing ISO to disk. Has an ok File/Folder to disk use as well.

CutePDF Free PDF creator and a nice small size.

OldVersion.com Found this site useful before when the latest version gives you trouble.

Moitah.net

This site has a few useful apps - the most useful of which I think is FLVextract! A free app to extract audio and video from flash videos ...

For the Firefox users, look up the Fire.FM extension, in browser music player, enter your favourite artists and it trawls radio stations etc for other similar music you'll like. So far it's found 0 out of 30 odd tracks that I don't like


And nnngh, Firefox's spell checker doesn't even recognise Firefox as a word...
