To-do list freeware software

[teknodude]

I'm looking for some high-quality, easy to use "to-do list" software.

What I'd like is a program that runs in the system tray (I have far too many apps running on the taskbar already when working) and *does not* eat up chunks and chunks of system resources! lol

Anyways, it needs to just be fairly simple so I can stick in notes of stuff I need to get done, possibly with deadlines if required.

Any recommendations folks?

Thanks for your advice,

How about a text file shortcut on the desktop? Notepad won't trigger alarms for you, but 0 system resources and very easy to learn 🙂

Hee hee, I tried that one before Dave! Lol. I could really do with something a little more advanced and organised...any more suggestions folks?!

Try Post it notes. Has alarms and uses very little resources

While not strictly free, Palm Desktop is freely available and has OK TODO capabilities.

I also did a quick search on CNets Shareware.com. There are a few highly rated, and free TODO managers.

Well guys...Post-It Notes seems to be popular so I've downloaded that and I'm trying it out ATM 🙂 If I don't like it I'll take on MonkeyK's suggestion...

Thanks a lot 🙂

I was using Chimp! for a while, the switched to Snippet.
It is tiny, does not need install/deinstall and sits where you want it to be.

Post-It Notes.

Do they have spyware?

I don't see why it would . . . anyway, I scanned with Lavasoft's Ad Aware 5.0 (5.83 [older] build - 2.930) and it couldn't find any either before or after the install (and use).

A good one is Advanced Desktop Calendar.
