Effective and convenient 
Revo Uninstaller version 1.71
Has worked flawlessly for me under XP. The Junk Files scanner is especially effective because it allows for additional target object customization -- making Revo Uninstaller a much-needed companion to CCleaner and such which do not. Very highly recommended.

Fine mid-level utility 
CAM unzip version 4.4
I used the terrific Filzip 3.06 for a long time until it inexplicable failed and kept failing, even after un/reinstallation. Then I tried IZArc2Go, which is feature-rich and attractive but had massive problems with shell integration under Win98SE -- no context menu or double-click responsiveness. Ciao bello. CAM Unzip, despite having the World's Ugliest Interface and a limited featureset, at least works cleanly and simply. Thumbs up.

Simplicity itself 
CrossLoop
CrossLoop is the simplest functional remote-control package out there. An absolute must-have for remotely assisting newbies and anyone who Just Wants You to Make It Work. If you can accept the limited functions (eg, currently no file xfer) and the need for the remote user to be present to establish a connection, CrossLoop just plain works. Very highly recommended for easy, basic remote control.

Excellent 
Wallpaper Master version 2.14
WallpaperMaster is an excellent wallpaper changer/manager. Simple to use, sufficient customization options, and the auto-shutoff feature makes this a must-have. No reason to use anything else!

Hands down, the best free app launcher 
Free Launch Bar version 1.0
Free Launch Bar's seamless integration with the Windows environment, complete customizing options, and ability to build multiple independent menus (rather than navigate a multi-page launcher interface) make it, hands down, the best of the freeware launchers. Highly recommended.

It's simple and kinda silly, but it works! 
Desktop Christmas Tree version 1.2
"Desktop Christmas Tree" is a desktop Christmas tree. Confusing? (On a serious note, it would be great if the light colors and/or blink pattern could be customized, but freeware users can't be freeware beggars.)

Caution for win98 users 
PixRenamer version 1.0
May be unusable under Win98(SE). PixRenamer installs version 5x of the WindowsSystem file OLEAUT32.DLL which is incompatible with Win98 (uses versions 2x only). Be sure to back up your current 2x version and reinstate it after installing PixRenamer, overwriting the updated 5x file. PixRenamer may or may not work with this earlier version of the file.

Almost 
CCleaner version 1.33
CCleaner is very fast and easy to use, but it lacks an essential feature: the ability to exclude (protect) items from cleaning. CCleaner offers no customizable options within its target areas (eg, keeping certain browser cookies or history files). IE Privacy Keeper (IEPK) offers complete customization and is a better alternative. [Editor: Cookies can be excluded from the options dialog]

Complete backup tool! 
Back it up version 5.4.9.125
Excellent tool for fast, simple, and complete backup needs. The ability to include folders, files and registry data is outstanding. Allows mirroring, too. Highly recommended.
