Here’s my list of essential free software you must have: (not sorted)
VLC: The best video player ever… it works with 99% of all video files. No more hunting for codecs. XP-MAC-ETC
Google Chrome: Super fast web browser, sure there is Mozilla Firefox but I like Chrome it works fast and no questions or prompts while starting/closing. XP
MM Taskbar: Have multiple monitors? this enables you to extend the task bar to the other monitors. Time saver. XP
AVG Antivirus: Free antivirus, if you cant afford a real antivirus so your self a favor download this until you can afford a “paid” version. XP
Avast Antivirus: Free antivirus that its fast and less intrusive than AVG. XP-MAC-ETC
Spybot: This tool keeps your PC free of spyware, install it now before you catch something!. XP
Vuze: Bitorrent client, you can download all kinds of files … (legal and NOT). XP-MAC
PeerGuardian: So now you’re downloading some content that might not be 100% legit… this tool will help protect your privacy. If you’re downloading torrents have this ON. XP
TrueCrypt: Keep all your drives encrypted to protect your files. This tool will help you if someone steals your drives/computer or the feds take your PC due to the torrents you’ve been downloading 
jk. XP-MAC-ETC
Hamachi: This is a program/service that allows you to create a Virtual Private Network so you can access your PC/drives from anywhere. XP-MAC-ETC
Logmein: This is from the same makers of Hamachi and it allows you to remote control your PC from anywhere its free and its awesome. XP-MAC
ExtraOutlook: Run multiple sessions of Outlook on same PC. Great hack that allows multiple mail profiles to be opened at the same time. XP
