Favorite Software?

I realize this is the HARDWARE forum, (no software forum, and this isn't really about games )but I want to know what programs can you Gamespotters cannot live without?

For me, it's Firefox, Spybot S&D, Pidgin, and Yahoo! Widgets

Also, what do you think is the handiest/niftiest set of programs you have used?

For me, it's Portable Apps, Ccleaner, and Firefox.
