shareaza is excellent for small files, sucks for torrents though

Azureus is free.
But I don't like it any more. Too bloated and slow (java)

Yes, it's a shame! but you can still download Sygate Personal Firewall from some places. I think 5.6 was the last version they did.

MWSnap 3

(One of the best Snapshot Utils I've seen. It has been mentioned in the Forum before, but I don't think it is in this thread before)

Misc Freeware

(Have only tried their Snapshot Util and it seems okey)

[Firewall]
Kerio Personal Firewall

New owner, but it still kicks ass. (and is cheaper than it used to be)
It's installed in trial mode for the full version,
after a month a few features is turned off and you have the "free" version.

The full and free version is not that different (some cool features though),
but the free version/mode is very complete and beats all other free or very cheap firewalls I've tested.

Highly recommended!

Awesome!:

TCPView is a Windows program that will show you detailed listings of all TCP and UDP endpoints on your system, including the local and remote addresses and state of TCP connections. On Windows NT, 2000 and XP TCPView also reports the name of the process that owns the endpoint. TCPView provides a more informative and conveniently presented subset of the Netstat program that ships with Windows. The TCPView download includes Tcpvcon, a command-line version with the same functionality.

The PureBasic Demo is the best freeware program
(But $99 on top of that and you get the FULL version)

I thought Opera went to a freeware model?

This looks like it may have bits and pieces useful to all areas of programming:

JeniuS is an universal file organizer and is the main element in the JeniuS programs suite. It let you organize your files in macro categories (audio, video, images...) and micro categories (author, genre, album, movie, photo, icon...).
Files can be inserted into user-defined albums (i.e.: a music files collection) or into automatically generated ones. For every album you can specify the artist's name, a short description, an image (i.e.: the CD cover or the movie poster), the year and the gender.
Every file inserted in JeniuS will be deeply analyzed and the most important information will be extracted: if it is a mp3 JeniuS will read id3 tags and will detect the bitrate, frequency, length..., if it is a video JeniuS will detect the codec, dimensions, number of frames per second... These information are stored in JeniuS' library and are used to catalog the file in the categories it fits best and to be able to find it easily in a second time.

There are several ways to find again a file stored in the library: for example, considering an audio file, you can select an album, the artist or the genre; show all audio files and then filter results; perform a basic or advanced search combining more search parameters; open the folder where the file is physically stored in.

Selecting one or more files all the information detected and inserted by the user are shown. Clicking on a few of them are displayed all the files that have the same info.
It is possible to rate (from corrupt to +5) and express a comment on every file. Ratings let JeniuS to generate an automatic playlist according to users' tastes in fact of music, letting him listening for example only the music he likes most.
Files not yet opened are displayed with a different color: this is very useful to know which files are to be seen/listened.
