Who Uses ALL FREEWARE?

[dszady]

Take it a step further:
A calendar of the most prolific acf posters along with revealing
pictures. I'm seeing John in a cop uniform, Blinky as an employee of
SeaWorld, Boomer - well, I can't tell ya what I'm seeing there...
POKO

A.M. in jail
Boomer - well that would be a requirement.

Who among us are so hard core they use all Freeware? (Except the
OS, of course.)

Except for highly specialized business programs, What Shareware or
Commercial programs are not replaceable by Freeware?

My weakness? Nod32 AV, Second Copy (backup program), Performance
Test (bench marking), and FlashGet. Oh yea, and Forte Agent.

Ditto on the av program (same one) and I use a commercial defragment
program. I also have a weakness for a couple of games that are
commercial. Otherwise, It's all freeware.

About proxomitron.

Hardly, there are dozen of proxomitron download sites.

Here is one http://www.computercops.biz/downloads-cat-19.html

This is the main one:

Well given that there are no official sites, one is as good as another

[Tone Marie Berg]

Why do you assume the program is "dead" because the creator of it
doesn't update it any more?

Well, with "dead" I mean "no longer updated". And it seems to finally
be the consesus that this is the case. This is sad, but will not keep
me from using it.

Maybe it's mature software that no longer needs updating.

Uhm, well, sort of. There are a lot of things that could be done with
it, but it works and works well in its current state.

I know that in every poll I've ever seen about newsreaders, Xnews
wins hands down.

Oh, I fully agree. As I believe I wrote in this very thread, I have not
found any program worthy of replacing it.

Why "except the OS, of course?" What's wrong with having a free OS, too?

I'm running FreeBSD, zero commercial applications, and here's a list of
all the freeware applications I currently have installed. This doesn't

Luu still updates as he sees fit.

Does he now? He does seem to finally have lost that final shred of
interest in the program. The last update was merely a quick hack; the
bug fix for that hack came over a month later. I'm sorry, but I won't
get my hopes up. I'd rather be pessimistic and pleasantly surprised.

1 by 1 and winamp to play mp3s. 1 by 1 used so that when i double
click a new mp3 i don't lose the last saved position in my main mp3
list.

fusionsoft dvd so that i play dvds after i left my windvd cd at home.
plus it takes screenshots.

irfanview to look at graphics files.

radvideo used to look at bik videos and convert graphics files.

startman for poking around my startup settings.

antivir personal

proximitron

spybot to kill spyware.

cookiewall

used to use killad before i got avant browser (killad can't work on
the tabbed browser window)

zonealarm firewall

2 iconlock programs to restore my icon placement (in case i save
instead of restore on one)

agent ransack to replace the crappy 2 inch by 4 inch windows file
finder that never leaves enough room for directory paths and never
remembers i resized it

easycleaner to clear unneeded registry keys and look at what occupies
most of my harddrive

enditall to kill all programs before i shutdown

metapad: the total notepad replacement. i even followed the simple
directions to rename it so any use of notepad uses it instead.

multirunner so i can run a group of programs at once without having to
do my own batch file.

quick folders to remember the last x number of folders i accessed.

rjhExtensions to get a multiple file renamer, save directory list,
copy file/dir path to clipboard, and duplicate file options in my

Except for highly specialized business programs, What Shareware or
Commercial programs are not replaceable by Freeware?

The only non-OS commercial software I have on my PC is --

Partition Magic, which I bought before I knew of any freeware
alternatives that seemed easy to use. (I wouldn't say it is
irreplaceable by freeware, though, I just have not had a need to replace
it because it works well for me.)

Microsoft Word, which came with my PC. I keep it because it can open
WordPerfect documents, while OpenOffice.org can't.

Otherwise, all freeware.

 

[Onno]

(Except the OS, of
course.)

Not me, I do use some payware.

What can't be replaced by freeware:

Home accounting software (DaviCash, which is able to import statements
from my local bank)
AV (BitDefender)

What I can, and often do, replace with freeware:
Download manager (GetRight)
CD Burning (WinonCD, came with the burner)
Graphic editing (Picture Publisher)

When you have already paid for the program, you better make use of it
