Well depends on whether your referring to Warez or not. If your referring to strictly legal programs...

ACDSee32!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe no one has said this yet!
IE 4.X and above.
ICQ.
Download Accelerator Plus.
WinZip

ACDSEE32 is hands down the best free proggy I've ever d/l though.

Sygate - this was a terrific program for sharing Internet before hardware routers were cheap and Win98SE. Was worth the $50 back then.
Napster - gotta love all those old songs you can't even find anymore
MotherBoard Monitor - great for us overclockers
Rain - also overclocker wonder

Still use all except Sygate on a regular basis.
