Mozilla Firefox
  • Freeware
  • Win2000/XP/2003/Vista

qleft  Great browser  qright

Mozilla Firefox version 1.04

Firefox is super secure and easy to use. If you are sick of acquiring Trojans just from LOOKING at certain web pages then make the switch to Firefox. Not only is it extremely secure but feature wise it blows IE away. (Tabbed browsing, RSS news feeds, password manager etc) You get the ease of use of IE with great additional features, plus the security of say, Opera, WITHOUT the steep learning curve! Highly recommended!

I just recently switched to Picasa 2 after months of frustration with the nightmarish "software" that shipped with my Kodak camera. Boy am I blown away! The fact that this program is free is just incredible. How or why they do it is beyond me. This is the most impressive freeware application I have ever had the pleasure of using. The interface is beautiful, I love the editing capabilities and everything works like it is supposed to- what a refreshing change! I must admit, I was hesitant about how well a freeware application would fulfill my needs but my worries were definitely unfounded, this is a first rate software application and would not be overpriced if it cost $100 or more. Five stars for sure! Thank you Google!

Password Agent
  • Free Trial ($24.95)
  • WinWin (All)

qleft  Can't fault it.  qright

Password Agent version 2.32
  • Interface: 5
  • Features: 5
  • Ease of use: 5
  • Value: 5
  • Overall: 5

This is one of the best password managers going and believe me, I've tried a few! The only shortcoming this program has is that being a "lite" version, you can only store 25 passwords as opposed to an unlimited amount in the full version- 25 should suffice for the average user though. Other than that there are no differences. Why would anyone pay for one of those expensive password management programs when you can get Password agent lite for free?

iISystem Wiper
  • Freeware

qleft  Stay away!  qright

iISystem Wiper version 2.4

This stupid program locked up my computer with error messages. I couldn't even close or minimize the program to reboot my pc so I had to shut down my machine manually using the on/ off switch. When I went to uninstall the program, certain components of it were left behind and had to be removed manually. I don't know what went wrong but I won't be trying it again to find out! Stay clear of this one!

POP Peeper
  • Freeware
  • WinWin (All)

qleft  This is the one!  qright

POP Peeper version 2.3.1
  • Interface: 5

Ok, I have tried a lot of these e mail notification programs. Most of them do what they say so you can't go too far wrong with any of them. I will say however that Pop peeper is the best of the lot. Simple to use, features are great and it can check both your POP3 e mail accounts as well as web based e mail accounts (Hotmail etc) which some of the other programs can't do. If you are tossing up which e mail notification program to run with, go with Pop peeper- It's first class!

This mp3 player is awesome! I was using Musicmatch jukebox basic but after trying Quintessential it took me about two seconds to decide to replace it. This is a great player, and unbelievably it's free!

G-Lock Temp Cleaner
  • Freeware
  • WinWin (All)

qleft  Simple and effective.  qright

G-Lock Temp Cleaner version 2.0
  • Interface: 4
  • Features: 4
  • Ease of use: 4
  • Value: 5
  • Overall: 4

A very stable and easy to use freeware utility. All pc users should have, and regularly run, a program of this type on their system. You will be amazed at the amount of junk files that accumulate on your system in a very short space of time. This program will free up an appreciable amount of disk space for most users and that is its primary function. Nice work!

Ad-Aware Free
  • Freeware
  • Win2000/XP/Vista

qleft  Great freeware utility!  qright

Ad-Aware Free version 6.181
  • Interface: 5
  • Features: 4
  • Ease of use: 5
  • Value: 5
  • Overall: 5

Ad aware is a great freeware utility and does a good job of locating and removing most of the more common varieties of spyware/ adware. Be aware however, that there is some that it will miss! I would suggest using Ad aware in conjunction with another spyware program. My personal favourite is Pest patrol but it's expensive. Ad aware is very effective and very stable and considering it's free, you cannot lose! Download now!

EZ Checker
  • Freeware
  • WinWin (All)

qleft  Fantastic little utility!  qright

EZ Checker version 2.5
  • Interface: 5
  • Features: 4
  • Ease of use: 5
  • Value: 5
  • Overall: 5

This is a fantastic little program. If, like me, all you want is a simple but very effective email notification program without a million different features that overcomplicate and confuse the whole process then ez checker should fit the bill quite nicely. It does exactly what it says and does it well. Great work!
