As of some time yesterday evening, my computer is all built and set up. I’ve been working pretty much nonstop since then to get it up to speed. There are just so many programs that are essential. Here’s my list:
Ad-aware
ZoneAlarm
3DMark2003
WindowBlinds
WindowFX
AOL Instant Messenger (with DeadAIM)
Download Accelerator Plus
McAffee Virus Scan (eh, it’s free from UF)
Quicktime
Macromedia Flash
eMule
BitTorrent
Winamp
Cisco VPN Client
ieSpell
Xteq X-Setup Pro
NOW it’s a computer.
