What are your favorite free apps? We've had similar threads, asking for software for specific purposes, but I don't think we've had a thread dedicated to free applications we've found over the years that we consider "gotta haves". I can't vouch for how any of these run on Vista or Windows 7, but I do know they run on 2000 and XP. Anyway, here are some of my favorites. Bulk Rename Utility If you're like me and you've amassed huge collections of video and pictures, you're eventually going to run into a list of files that just look sloppy, with files being somewhat hard to find. Enter Jim Willsher and his Bulk Rename Utility. The guy is dedicated to his product - he's been updating it for years now. I have so much respect for him, I sent him a donation, even though the utility is free. I can't begin to put a number on the options available in this program. Some of the basic features allow you to add prefixes and suffixes, change letter case, remove and/or replace characters, add sequential numbers and the list goes on. It integrates very nicely into the Windows shell, allowing you to right click to access the program. Been using it steadily for what seems forever. (One of my favorites, hence all the hype LOL) Foxit Reader Opens .pdf files faster and without a splash screen like Adobe has. It also uses less system resources than Adobe. Orbit Downloader A media grabber that will grab most flash videos as well as other audio/video formats. Clonespy A great duplicate file finder, with the ability to apply masks to limit your searches to specific files. Color Cop A multi-purpose color picker for web designers and programmers. It features an eyedropper, magnifier and variable magnification levels. It converts RGB decimal values to Hexadecimal color codes. It has color code support for HTML Hex, Delphi Hex, PowerBuilder, Visual Basic Hex, and Visual C++ Hex. Glary Utilites The best free Windows optimizer I've seen. I call it Windows Washer Plus. Includes a disk cleaner, a registry cleaner, a registry defragger, empty folder finder, a file joiner and many others useful apps. Gspot Codec Information Appliance Identify what codecs are missing on your PC for a video that won't play. VLC Media Player If you want to skip messing with codecs altogether, this is a great media player. In five or so years of using it, it's only failed to play less than a dozen files here. Includes dozens and dozens of options to customize how it plays, including tricks like "cartooning", rotate picture, invert colors, slow and rapid play and a lot more. Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

I thought you were talking cell phone apps when I saw this post, and was trying to think of any related to porn, but couldn't... DownloadThemAll is definitely my favorite, although it isn't the best download manager. Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars. Brandt: Ah hahahahaha! Wonderful woman. We're all, we're all very fond of her. Very free-spirited. | |

VLC is great. GIMP is also very good for basic image manipulation. | |

I'm glad you mentioned download managers. I don't know how, but I left one of my other constantly used favorites off the list. FreeDownloadManager Integrates into the Windows shell and monitors all the popular browsers. Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

Great list there Ragingbuddhist. Sorry, I don't have much to offer at this point as I guess I prefer to keep my porn organized under the natural laws of entropy. | |

That's a great list raging buddhist. Let me add a little software that I stumbled upon called any video converter. Since I download quite a few videos in wmv or h264 but I prefer to watch these on TV using my dvd player then this software is great to convert these files as well as a few onthers into XVID format which i then burn to a dvd. Their is a basic versions that`s free and you can always pay to get the upgraded version. anyvideoconverter: www.any-video-converter.com/products/for_video_free/ Long live the Brown Coats. | |

That is a super list. I will also vouch for Any Video Converter which is great for grabbing YouTube stuff. I was not aware of Glary Utilities, and up to this point have tried ATF Cleaner, but that looks to be a good one. | |

BTW: VLC is top - and you can't be without it (one problem here, though: fast forward is NOT fast forward, but slow - and you have to wait for scenes to clear up)...GOM Player does it a bit better and the old, old Media Player Clasic is one of the best when you want to go 'fast forward' in you large clips... 2. BTW: Download managers: Fine hint from RB here, too - FreeDownloadManager - used it some weeks now - and it's even easier to use than my old (payed for) IDM.

By comparing what I've seen on my laptop and my desktop, I've noticed that the ability to speed up a video and still keep a clean picture depends on the resolution of the video and the specs of your computer. HD video at high speed might be asking your computer to display too many frames per second. If you don't have a fast processor and a lot of memory, it definitely has a problem with the higher resolution video. Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |
