Clever freeware/shareware/cheapware PC apps & utilities

I am not trying to repair, replace or resume the previous "Build a PC" or "Ask your PC support questions here" topics that we had in the old forum structure. This is something a little different. With the new "comment and reply" tiers that we have to use, it seems (to me) that a topic to allow the community to mention, share, find, and discuss various tools and applications would be potentially useful. The idea of this topic is that anyone can create a reply to this OP, link to, and then have followup discussion for a website, a service, a utility, a shareware, freeware or other application that they have found to be useful, helpful or indispensable. It's worth a try. If you have programs that you can't live with out, feel free to comment and share your gems with the community. Hell, if this gets really popular, I may have to index some permalinks in the OP. [b][u]ProTip for commentors[/u]:[/b] While it may be tempting to just paste your listing of favorites, the forum structure is going to allow/encourage us to make comments that are a single app (preferably with a link) and an explanation of not just what it does, but why it is so helpful to you! If we can keep the comments to single-app review and link, with the replies then focused on that app, each comment will become its own sub-topic.

    [url=http://m8software.com/clipboards/spartan/spartan.htm]Spartan Multi-Clipboard[/url]. This app allows you to save, manage and control your copy/paste functions. If you EVER find yourself wishing "I have to type this AGAIN?" then a clipboard manager like this can be invaluable. This one (Spartan) has multiple sheets, each sheet allows around 100 clips. It then pastes into any program with a single-click. It handles, text, music, pics, anything that you can put into your clipboard. There is also a completely free version called [url=http://m8software.com/clipboards/freeclip/freeclip.htm]M8[/url] One of the ways that this was indispensable for me was back when we ninja used to directly warn/ban people. I would have dozens of standard "ban reasons" pre-typed and would be able to paste them into a warning/ban message with one click. Ever wonder how I could "carpet ban" a whole thread and ban 100+ members in a few minutes? It was this tool. It made it simple.
