Its a slow day so..

Windows does its best and shits itself and you have to re install. So
after loading the OS and of course the megabytes of patches what are the
next 10 programs you install?
We will assume of course that the first is an firewall and the second
anti virus but the next ten steps, which may include things that you remove!
Now we are after programs here not steps like disable messenger service
and the likes.

For me on my workstation notebook
1. Mozilla, Have to have my mail
2. Win Zip, lots of my mail has files which are zipped
3. Tight VNC, To lazy to go over to my main Gateway machine to change
mail server settings etc
4. Video Lan Client, have to have my on demand streaming movies and
music videos
5. Win Amp, Great for music and with the HTML remote control plug in
installed I have full control of it either playing local or on the gateway
6. Office 2000, Dam have to earn a living
7. Visio, see above
8. ACDSee, for viewing my digital camera pics (stored on the gateway
machine)
9. Nero 2.00.28, got to be ale to archive my work
10. TweakUi, to get rid of the defaults MickeyShit thinks I should have.
