First, I attempt to kill myself for ever relying on Windows, then after that fails, Iinstall anti virus software and Steam, then away I go to pwn teh n00bs.

Programs. Lots and lots of programs.

My computer is always a work in progress.

 

[j00fek]

drivers

then everything else

OP,

You install a lot of crap that slows down your system in an effort to keep other crap from being installed that slows down your system.

[LordMorpheus]

haven't reformatted in a 2 years now . . . what would I do right off the bat?

hmm.

NOD32
Zone Alarm
Opera
Thunderbird (unless the new Opera mail client handles digital signatures)
Windows Update
Gaim
iTunes + Foobar + Foobar plugins + music library (I have some lossless music that iTunes won't play)
bblean
xPlorer 2

disable all the nonsense startup stuff.
make bblean my default.

Good to go. (and I'll never have to look at windows explorer until my next reformat)

 

[imported_LoKe]

Install Firefox, Trillian and NOD32 from a disc, update if available. Download the IETab extension and do my Windows Updates that way. I avoid IE as much as possible.

That being said, I just use Linux now.
