Re: What are your favourite open source tools

ccleaner

Malwarebytes isnt open source (well its not free). Neither is Glary Utils

cdburnerxp - for creating ISO's / burning / ripping / burning MP3's. There is also a x64 version

There's also connectify, for windows 7. Which will let it act as an access point (but you need a wireless adapter) so it'll work

hijackthis

Auslogics disk defrag

Defraggler

VLC

Teamviewer. I use this a lot for remote access. When helping people. Better than remote desktop. The one youre helping, can see what you're doing

Re: What are your favourite open source tools

I'll add two

vlc player - media player

7zip - fire archiving

Re: What are your favourite open source tools

Good morning Speedy Gonzales
Thanks for your input
Well not open source but there are free versions of Glaryutilities and Malwarebytes antimalware.
it would be nice if you add a new message with the links to cdburnerxp, connectify, Teamviewer, Defraggler, hijackthis websites. So that everyone could enjoy your choice.
I' ve tried cdburnerxp sometimes ago, it's nice but I had a problem with it. I can't remember what was that problem but I'll tell you as soon as I can remember. It also had a lot of advertising, Am I right?. So I choose Imgburn without the ask toolbar. I also do not need all the options CDburnerxp offers.
But it still a very nice Choice
Thank you
To Kamike: Thank you

Re: What are your favourite open source tools

I tried to add links but all that did, was come back to this site. It doesnt matter, if I type the addies in manually, or use insert link in this reply. How do you get rid of the pchelp bit at the front?

Re: What are your favourite open source tools

Hello smokeycheech
It seems I did a mistake with the title of this thread... I had to choose the word "Freeware" or "free" instead of "Opensource"
Is it possible to change the title and put:
"What are your favourite free tools under Windows 7?"
Thanks
