For those of you who have quicktime, but dont use programs dependent upon it such as iTunes, theres this

Its the same thing, but smaller and makes quicktime dependent programs not work .
Clean My Registry:
I'm pretty anal about having a clean registry, I have no less than 5 registry cleaners and a registry optimizer
I found this to be a pretty good program

Free Ram XP Pro:
This is another program I love- It frees up large amounts of ram on command or periodically. It only frees ram on the motherboard, of course.

DosBox-
I personally LOVE the Duke Nukem Atomic Edition series, and all its addons. However I doesnt work properly on my current system. This emulator helped me with that little problem- even though I'd already downloaded eDuke32 xD

XP on Mac -
Being that I loath the Mac OS- and all the snotty kids in my grade that use it - I encourage the use of this program I received in a PC World Daily Downloads email

CCleaner -
Do I need to elaborate?

Quake III Arena:
http://www.idsoftware.com/games/quake/quake3-arena/
A great little toy- useful for killing time in my opinion. But not likely you'll find anyone playing on a server so fight the computer
For Linux-
I'd say Nexiuz but I dont know the website of the most amazing interactive fps for linux off the top of my head
also- ET Quake Wars is good too.
again, my Linux corrupted my mbr so I have to boot it on a disc to use it partially. It stole a 32 GB partition of my hard disk, lol. I could get it back but I like having 200GB on my windows one for now .
