I don't even bother installing WinZip and I have a paid copy of it. Anyone want to buy a license? :) WinRAR owns.

ICQ was awesome back in the day. True, WinRAR owns WinZip. Real does suck, they were good before for video, but they REALLY suck now. I find that Adobe Acrobat 7 runs faster than 6, but nothing is more bloated than Adobe Acrobat Professional 6. MY god that thing takes like a few minutes to laod.

If any of you noticed, this isn't based on # of downloads. The list was picked basically by randomly picking software that they CLAIM had an impact on the way we use the internet.

Heh...

Cool.

I don't think some of you realize how long ICQ has been around.

I knew about ICQ while I was still on local BBSes.....
