I just had to format my windows partition wich deleted all my installed programs. I still have most of them on the other HDD, but I thought that your advise would be priceless (like MasterCard).
So here comes the question: What (Windows) software couldn't you live without?

If possible offer free programs since I don't have enough money and I don't bother to crack software .

Suggestions are gladly welcome

Messenger Plus!
Rainlendar
Winamp
Tavultesoft Keyman
Stone's WebWriter
Mozilla

You might not know or need all, but these are all freeware (for personal use)

Plus!

And abc.exe It's an Bittorent Client.
Kazaa K lite K++
MSN
Ad-Aware
Panda Anti-Virus
iTunes

And a Lot more, but lets keep it at this

What are yours?

Shall I go on?

Well, Messenger Plus seems kinda obvious.

My CPU got melted by a defective liquid refigeration (it lose liquid over the motherboard ) and it screw up both. Luckily my HDD remained intact. Ibought new CPU and MB and had to format windows partition in order to reinstall it (dunno why, I reinstalled windows thousands of times without having to format it... but w/e).

Btw, I think I will be able to live without Firefox or PS. I'll try to use GIMP2 from now on .

I'll tell it again: My CPU melt. I didn't tell it to wait until I had backed up my files. I still have my programs, but I'm to lazy to reinstall them.
I only had to format a 10GB partition only windows uses (almost nothing is installed there). But the libraries and the register entries got lost.

My total memory is 0.28TB, enough for having loooots of programs. But well, maybe new ideas could make life easier.

i forward you to the first post: Software you can't live without.
