Seven Free Software Downloads - Comments Page 2

I use draftsight in drawing. it is very usful and convience

I am wondering about using multiple programs. If I'm running the Microsoft Security Essentials. Do/should I run other security software at the same time? Are there conflicts/problems/advantages/disadvantages with running more than one at a time? Thanks.

Notepad++ (http://notepad-plus-plus.org/)is a free, powerful, and easy-to-use replacement for Notepad. It supports a myriad of programming languages, with auto-indenting, highlighting, etc.

Try it; you'll like it!

I use NotePad++ because of its flexibility and it stores all the notes under one location for retrieval. I always install Irfanview on every machine. It loads so much faster than the defaults and is very versatile. I also use Defraggler and Ccleaner on every machine. I'm not a mozilla fan but I do use Foxit to replace adobe for viewing. It is fast and very lightweight.

I'm a little confused by your recommendation of Advanced System Care Free. In previous articles you have stated that there wasn't much benefit to using Registry utilities, yet this program has one.

If you want a full suite of free programs that still work well with Microsoft products, Open Office is not bad either. The latest version does a pretty good job and emulates Word/Excel/PP pretty well. Our school district has used them for the last 4 years.

Just wanted to share my fave freebies: FIREFOX or CHROME. Both excellent...whichever one you like best. LIBRE OFFICE; Does more and does it better than Open Office...which is no longer supported. Those folks now support and update Libre Office. AVAST 6 or AVIRA 12; Both have better blocking, detection and cleaning abilities than AVG according to AV-Comparatives. THREATFIRE; Excellent adjunct to your main AV security apps (See Bob's review). CCLEANER; Still the best. MALWAREBYTES; Show me a malware remover that works better. SUPERANTISPYWARE; Excellent spyware detector/remover. FOXIT PDF READER; Small footprint, works great, displays fast and does not provide a big hole for malware entry like the Adobe Reader. REVO UNINSTALLER; Leaves very few file and registry scraps behind. The best uninstaller. AGENT RANSACK; Great little app that will find all of the files in a search...unlike Windows' file search. AUTORUNS; Superb untility that shows every single process that runs on your PC. Allows you to disable or delete each process. Still the best. VLC PLAYER; Plays everything. You can set it to play stuff that needs Quicktime so you can get rid of Quicktime. ERUNT; Backs up Entire Registry...not just part of it like Windows does. EUSING REGISTRY CLEANER; Finds all the entries that need to be removed yet will not harm your PC. Show me a cleaner that cleans better and is safe to use. AUSLOGICS DISK DEFRAG; I feel its the best all around defrag and file optimizer. It just kills the Win 7 built in defrag. All of the apps I've mentioned are free. I welcome your comments. I'm always open to better free programs.

Hi, Bob. Do you have some good sugestions of free apps for Mac OS X?

Hey Bob!
I LOVEEEEE Jarte! It is an editor with all anyone needs right in it. I have tried many, many things online in my 12 or so years online, in business, blogs, article writing, etc...everything you have ever talked about I had need for, I have tried and you are right on every time. Did you recommend Jarte? I do not remember... I also love the Super Anti-spyware that is free. I use it, Malware Bytes, and AVG...and CCleaner, which is also free. I used to pay big bucks for anti virus and other protection. Not anymore, no way! There are too many awesome programs out there!
I have read ya for years and you always help me. Your site and newsletter are very helpful in every way. Thanks so much Bob!!

Bob,
I would not recommend any program from Iobit (Advanced SystemCare) due to Iobit stealing from Malwarebytes' database (Iobit Security 360)from 2009.

Hello, I use: Imagburn for burn everything, Cccleaner, RevoUninstaller, Comodo Internet Security Premium, Comodo Dragon browser, ( Ff 9 it's second ),Auslogic Disc Defragmenter, DiscWizard setup for backup, Aimp2 for music VLC, Kmplayer for movie and Bsplayer free also for movie and find subtitles. All free.

How can i downloud these photo shop to my computer?

I highly recommend Revo Uninstaller free version. Been using it for many years.
