WinRAR for file compression
NitroHex or WinHex for a hex editor
PGP for encryption
Mozilla web browser
Eraser for secure file erasing
Trillian for 'net chat

That's what I use for the most part, plus some various programming software.

Edit: Ghost 2002 for drive imaging
Partition Magic for drive partitioning

Nero burning rom. Used for cd creation.
Drive Image 5.0. Used to back up or Image your PC.

These 2 are invaluable to me..

Here are my preferences.

Daemon Tools - CD ROM emulation tool. Invaluable speed enhancement.

Aston Shell - Win32 shell

ZoneAlarm, AnalogX's Hypertrace, HackTracer - Firewalls

WinZIP, WinRAR, WinACE, WinARJ and every other bloody WinX compression program as well as the seemingly gone UnPackPro and AZPR (I forget things frequently) - Compression algorithms

CloneCD, CDRWin, BlindWrite, CDMate, and a whole slew of CD tools - Burning

A bunch of old games, Cygwin, an X-11 emulator, and a slew of other programs that now one really uses, knows about, and/or cares about.

Respectfully,

Demosthenes
