Can't see any reference to this, so here we go.
For those using IE7, here's a nifty little thing that does various things as well as having a decent ad blocker and spell checker (ok, you have to "teach" it some things, but it's pretty simple to use).

Truecrypt
Truecrypt (TrueCrypt - Free Open-Source On-The-Fly Disk Encryption Software for Windows Vista/XP, Mac OS X and Linux) is now way faster on multiple-core machines. On Vista and Win2008, logical partitions as well as physical partitions can now be encrypted. Other assorted bells and whistles remain roughly the same.

Registry Cleaner
I spent hours trying to sort my son's laptop when it started to run EXTREMELY slowly.
Eventually, after a google, I was directed towards RegSupremePro which has a 30 day free trial.
One run of the prog sorted it. Don't know what the underlying problem was but it did the biz.

Operating system.
Ubuntu Linux.....google and download, you can burn it to cd or write them and they'll post you one.....FREE you can boot off the disc,or partition your hard-drive and choose linux or windoze on bootup.
regular new versions, each is supported for 18 months ,IIRC.
I've used it for about 4 years- NEVER crashes and pleased to say I don't even know how to work windoze, past 3.11.
Ubuntu, Opera, Firefox, Open Office and millions of "plugins" all free
recognises a printer, camera etc. plays almost any format audio and video and isn't plagued with all the viruses and malware that plague Microshaft machines........I love it.

Seagate Disc Wizard
http://www.seagate.com/www/en-us/sup...ads/discwizard
Very useful free tool to clone or backup hard-disks - uses Acronis engine + works with other makes as long as you have at least on Seagate drive plugged into the system. Can backup to external drives and other removable media too. When restoring from backups you can pick and choose individual files or folders.
Used it last weekend to migrate complete C drive from 35gb disk to 80gb in under 60 minutes.
