Personal-Backup:
I use an external (eSATA) hard-drive for my daily backups. I had been doing this manually. Incremental backups were done by searching based on date modified. All quite tedious.
I recently started using Personal-Backup. It greatly simplifies the backup process so I'm now doing it more frequently.
Also, it's free.

they probably had to do that to help defend their turf..Googles Sketchup 3d and Sketchup Pro have probably impacted them significantly in the Architectural use of autocad 2d/3d software and Solidworks is doing their best to take whats left of the profit out of 2d autocad software
by offering a free professional grade 2d program to replace autocadLt and autocad in many apps

So far it looks good !

I've been using Viewmate for many years (the free version):

You do need to register to obtain a serial number required during installation.

- AviDemuX Multi OS VirtualDUB alternative
As that's the first mention of VirtualDub in this thread I'll also say "VirtualDub" itself.
For doing diffs I like KDiff3 a lot.
VirtualCloneDrive to mount as a "fake" CD any .iso image (this can also be done by VirtualBox inside VMs)
For recording onscreen action in Windows: CamStudio by RenderSoft
As a hex editor that can open whole drives as well as files and understands FAT format the read-only version of WinHex from X-Ways.
Tortoise+SVN as a code versioning system.
Format Factory for converting between all kinds of video formats.
HeapAgent as a tool for i386 .exe development that hooks the system malloc() and gives diagnostics about over-runs and things.
OpenVPN for making a VPN link to a corporate network.
PSI as a Jabber IM client.
WinDirStat for getting a visual map of what's eating all your hard drive space.
ProcExp and ProcMon for Task Manager with go faster stripes (and monitoring file/registry accesses)
Because no one else has mentioned it: Arudino of course. (not to mention the avr-gcc toolchain!)
Oh and...
Another vote for VirtualBox as a VM
Another vote for Notepad++ as a text editor
Another vote for TeraTerm as serial terminal
Another vote for Audacity as audio editor
Another vote for 7-Zip as compression/archive manager
Another vote for GIMP as an image editor
Another vote for CutePDF as a PDF "printer"
Another vote for Foxit as a PDF reader
Another vote for VLC as the ultimate media player (backed by FFmpeg) |

| Cutecom for linux: similar to Brays, and the only Linux tool I've found that can display incoming serial data as hex... |

Old but still good and working tools
OllyDbg - Cool debugger Disassembler
IDA - This program also exist as free version/personal
Hiew - Dissasembler HEXeditor and much more homepage or (video)
CUP386.exe (CyberWare Universal Unpacker, UCFCUP, CUP) - Unpacks many compressed executables
Quote:
CUP386 is regularly cited as one of the best EXE unpackers around – it was developed primarily for hackers and others with a programming bent. Although CUP386 has many debugging and other power-user options, it is often capable of unpacking many formats in one easy step, and that's why I include it here. CUP386 has been tested with the following formats – but was designed to unpack executables packed with unknown software: PkLite, Diet, LzExe, TinyProg, PgmPak, HackStop, WWPack.
Requires a 386+, functions best when memory managers (e.g., EMM386) are not loaded.
Author: Alex Petroukine / Cyberware,
HINT:
Use some command line switches
/3 /5 Emulate i386 instructions good for AntiDebugCode Skipping
/d debug this will invoke Borland TDebug txt mode Debugger thats really cool is so small EXE binary
Download ucfcup34.zip (49K).
And some others usefull tools here or dirlisting here |

| I use Bullzip PDF Printer. It installs as a standard printer. It has features like: security, watermarks, merge/append. I print to it from MS Office, IE etc. I also use it to print select pages out of an existing PDF file. |

Not sure if these are already included but here's my favourites.
CutePDF, for printing files to PDF
Winmerge, compares documents, good for looking at changes in revisions of code.
CoolEdit, used for changing the sample rate of WAV files. |

It's about 10 years ago that I had so much fun with Ntrack to make all kinds of sounds.
Here it is:
http://ntrack.com/
BTW: With the early wav recorder/player in Windows you could playback your recordings in reverse. It is a really funny game to learn the reverse played song, sing&record that and reverse playback.
In my language (dutch) it seemed I could sing in russian and vice versa. Really cool!
You may learn somebody this reverse song, and then play it back in reverse. Of course you can make people say/sing things they did not intend.  |
