Well, its been about 2 years since the last time a thread like this was posted, and software has already evolved a lot.  So, i'm just wondering, what software couldnt you live without today.  Utilities, Productivity Software, Etc.

My List:

• Windows Live Messenger
  
• WinZip 10
  
• Messenger Plus! Live
  
• Azereus
  
• Limewire Pro
  
• Cyberlink PowerDVD Deluxe
  
• SmartFTP
  
• Adobe Photoshop CS2
  
• iTunes
  
• Microsoft Office 2007 Beta
  
• Norton Internet Security
  
• DVD Shrink

Original Thread: Software you couldn't live without

My List

• Windows Live Messenger
  
• WinRar
  
• WinAmp
  
• µTorrent
  
• Opera
  
• Open Office 2.0

These are the ones i can't leave without.. I don't understand why you put Plus! in there.. Just because we're in a Plus! community, you don't have to say that.. Plus! is a great program, but we're talking about extremely necessary programs (hence 'Pograms you can't LIVE without)

• Windows Live Messenger
  
• Windows Media Player
  
• Microsoft Office
  
• Winmx
  
• Firefox
  
• Remote Administrator v2.2

I wouldnt use Windows Live Messenger if I didnt have Plus!....I think its a pretty featureless client without Plus!.  Anyway, If I lost any of that software I find myself unable to do certain things...so yeah

Microsoft Windows

Firefox
iTunes
Paint
Notepad

Then a list of not bothered which software but would prefer

Microsoft Office (mainly publisher so couldn't use openoffice.org )
Photoshop CS2
Flash 8 Pro
Messenger
Thunderbird
Anti-stuff's (anti virus anti spyware etc) - keeps me in a nice little job

various software that works behind the scenes for internet connection etc

But technically we can all live without these, as push coems to shove i'll just play on my psp instead of my pc or even do some college work or something if its not working
