Help Compile A List Of Free Applications No Webmaster Should Be Without
I wanted to get a list of programs put together that we can reference new GWW Community members to when they are looking for something specific such as a spyware removal application, .zip archiver, graphics program, etc etc.
With that being said, if you have any links to applications that could help our other community members that are free or, have a free trial, please list them in this thread.
Hopefully a few of our community members will get some use out of this thread as the GWW Community grows more.
Here are my contributions to the list:
WinRar - Zip archiver / extraction utility - Free (Unlimited) Trial.
http://www.rarlab.com
Spy Sweeper - Spyware / Adware removal program - Free Trial.

Core FTP - FTP Clients - Free Version

Add any other applications that you think a webmaster might need to this thread, even if you have alternate products to the ones i listed above :)

FREE Antivirus, FTP, & Spyware Programs!
Here's a couple of free programs I use and highly recommend them.
>Free Antivirus Program:
http://www.grisoft.com or http://www.grisoft.com/doc/38/lng/us/tpl/tpl01
This AVG antivirus program works flawlessly without hogging the memory or speed of your PC. Grisoft has also come out with a new Firewall program which I will be downloading and trying.
Free (30 Day Trial) FTP Program: http://www.ipswitch.com or http://www.ipswitch.com/downloads/index.asp
WS_FTP provides an easy to use FTP program that is uncomplicated and designed for the newbie or seasoned webmaster. Give this a try for 30 days free, or buy it for the cheap price of $39.95
>Free Spyware Detect/Removal Program:
http://www.lavasoft.de/
This Ad-Aware program is free and is similar to SpyBot Search&Destroy yet catches some spyware that SpyBot doesn't catch. Better to have 2 programs to use rather than getting spied on.
Hope you'll try these programs out and let us know how it works for you.
