I didn't notice if this was on there or not, but I love WavePad for editing audio files and you can also convert from one type of file to another (i.e. mp3 to wav).
Also, there is a program called OpD2d that lets you record directly from your soundcard. You can record streaming audio in this way. It's not CD quality but it's a nice way to save something that you can't get any other way. It has its own file format but I use WavePad to convert it to a .wav file.

We must have an updated list blue-gun.....
Someone prior mentioned Avast Antivirus by Alwil software. This program is a totally free stand alone program. No sidebar advertisements No pop up adds...ever No spyware No adware Virus Definitions are updated every 3 hours not once a day as in Nortn. And its easy to sign up Submit your valid e-mail to avast to receive your free product activation code. Your PA code is good for one year, at which time you must reregister with Avast to receive your next year, and so on... I have Avast on 7 computers in my house and it hasn't failed me yet. My Opinion--- The most useful program on the net.

Winzip and Winrar both have 40(?) day trials.
You can unzip and unrar(?) things with those after the trial period, but not zip or rar(?) anything. I think... Wow, lots of (?)'s on that. |

That still does not qualify them as "free" software.
