My Favorite Software List.
Some software I consider to be "part and parcel" of Windows. I can't live without them.


* IrfanViewThe fastest Image Viewer.


* FireFoxI never use IE. Only exception is Microsoft sites.


* WinRARTHE best compression tool

Lastly Notepad. Note this "normal" Notepad and not Notepad2. I like it so much because its tremendously fast and contains no unnecessary bells and whistles.

If you must have a Windows Notepad-style editor instead of a proper WordStar-style one, don't overlook
TED Notepad

Small, fast, freeware, no-install version if preferred, many more features than Microsoft Notepad.

hehe, time for me to make a vim plug :)
As fast as Notepad, and, well, more features that you can learn in years, see:

Available on any OS pretty much, you can work over a shell (no graphical interface) and be happy, faster than any other editor once you know the basics.

And of course, people looking at you editing code may think that you have mental powers and control the editing changes by pure force of will :)
