What's the best peice of software? Definetely, both hands down, BulletProof FTP.
Why? Simply because it brought me more other software titles than anything else combined :)
Runner up will be Napster, which proudly comes in on the second place.

PC - IE, WinAmp, Napster, and all sorts of shareware stuff
PowerMac - Transmit, the best FTP client, hands down.

Lately, I've been impressed with Download Accelerator Plus. Some don't like it, but I've found it better and faster than any other download manager I've tried.

In this order:

-AVG Anti-Virus (free edition) kicks! Love the boot-up scanner and (lately at least) frequent updates.

-Napster
-Sonique
-Get Right

In increasing order of usefulness:
Winamp, FireBurner, Nero, WinRAR, dTV, and now especially thanks to video editing, VirtualDub.

Oh yeah, I forgot, VNC is a very useful cross-platform util too!

I would have to ask,would that be legally or illegally? Copernic for legal programs,its an awesome search program if you have never tried it. For warez I guess I would have to say Photoshop*.*
