what i still need is a multiprotocol chat software (don't really use AV)
a good RSS reader
irc client
torrent client
(this is it that comes to mind right now)
I may update the list though.

i dont kno but try filehippo.com they hav a bunch of files, for windows.
dl utorrent or bitcomet their the best

ahh thanks...i guess i'll go with utorrent then...looks very slick and lightweight

Those sites are safe and have a lot of good programs:

well if u want cracked programs there are a lot of sites but be aware of viruses. I dont know if i am allowed to post them here becoz it might infect people who click on the links and dont have a good security.

I'd stay away from XP SP3 for now cuz SP3 has prevented me from installing the updates from Window Update and I do not know why it is so I unstalled SP3 and it started working again.

maybe nortan anti-virus?
