Software is amazing. Enables you to do so many things. Here are a list of a few that i just can't live without.(No particular Order) Most of them are freewares.


[image loading]

-Firefox 3.0 I'm a Fox fan till i die. It was the first thing to liberate me from the awfulness of IE6 (holy !#$%, that shit was painful, i can't believe i browsed the net with that fuckin' piece of crap for most of my online life). So , Fox fan till i die.. I really doubt that Chrome will turn out to be better. If it does, then FF4 will regain the title. as for safari and opera and all the others...mehhhhh

-uTorrent? ^_^...allright allright, you already know the deal


[image loading]

-Soulseek. Your #1 P2P For music. Limewire ? > hehehehehe...Limewire PRO ? hahaha, rrrrrright. When you have used Soulseek (a freeware) you'll immediately find extreme irony in the fact that the Limewire guys are actually askin' for 10 bucks for their 'Pro' version.

[image loading]

-Foobar2000. Your #1 Audio player. Especially when you start to have a big ass mp3 database. This thing is a must for any serious Soulseek users. Forget winamp, forget itunes, forget windows media player. This player is where its at. This is for the real players.


[image loading]

-Emule. This P2P is crazy. Ridiculous selection. Some files might take you a long ass time to download..and some might never finish...but i've hit speeds as fast as 350k/s due to simply have a long list of files that were being downloaded at the same time. Overall this program is dope. I use this mostly for rare videos and rare programs but you can find pretty much whatever the fuck you want.



[image loading]

ACDSee Image manager. The hottest photo manager out there. Really really cool if you want to organize your pictures. Create albums etc..

[image loading]

J.River Media Center 13. Wow, one of my most recent discoveries. Same thing as ACDsee for this one is great to manage videos and although it can also work with pictures and audio, i prefer to use other programs for these (see above). I had been looking for a really long time for a good software that could help me organize my videos because i was starting to have so many of them. I tried pretty much all of them and nothing was optimal...until i finally found this. thank god.

YoutubeDownloader .thats pretty cool. lets you download youtube videos and save them into .flv video files

PerfectUninstaller. Pretty cool little program that gives you the power to remove pretty much any application that you're having problems when you're trying to uninstall them . I only used it once..when i was having problems trying to remove Nero Burning from my PC cuz it was taking so much space. Worked like a charm. Nero was gone in seconds.


[image loading]

Avast. #1 Antivirus, combines anti spyware, antimalware, antiworm, antifuckineverything. Really really powerful, never ever had a problem with this thing. When you try this out, you'll tend to forget what the fuck viruses or spywares are exactly...they become so obsolete.




What are you guys MUST-HAVE software?

You seriously fail. What software do you think is most important to Teamliquid?

+ Show Spoiler +

[image loading]


:D!


For me, Cryptload, mIRC as well as ICQ/MSN are the most useful and important softwares. Probably also Nero and VLCPlayer.

Edit: I thought Soulseek was dead?

-VLC media player is awesome compared to almost any player out there and free.
-Openoffice for those that cant afford office or cant use the "alternative download"
-Small ones like Winrar, cdisplay (allows to watch images compresed, mostly for manga), flv player, eclipse (basically a text editor but with nice features for programming).
-ICQ is still alive?
Help me! im still improving my English. An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. M. G.

Where I can i try to have my software free and multiplatform.

ZoneAlarm Firewall. First thing to go on a fresh install. Does very little but all i need.
[image loading]


avg 75 free. I'm not gonna pay, obviously. Just don't set it to update everyday. (Oh lol, I didn't even install it yet on this pc)
[image loading]


Google Chrome. I came back from Ubuntu for this beauty. (and starcraft offcourse )
[image loading]


Vlc. Plays everything, and is multiplatform.
[image loading]


Universal extractor. Extracts everything.
[image loading]


uTorrent. Lightwight.
[image loading]


Pidgin. Multiplatform multiservice instant messenger. Has everything except..
[image loading]


Skype. Used it to talk to my gf. Now I use this while starcrafting. I guess I should get ventrillo or smt? What's hot for that purpose?

Irfanview. Supersmall basic image editing program. Supports command line / batch use. Fast.
[image loading]


Audacity. Because I was tired using Peter Quistgards serial number, and this thing looks a lot like cool edit anyways.
[image loading]


Oh and starcraft ofcourse, the one from iccup. That's all you need and runs off a usb-stick.
