Netstumbler

One of the most flexible and user friendly tools out there for interfacing with wireless networks has got to be Netstumbler. With this free application you can not only manage and connect to local wirleless networks, you can also see the technical specifications of each one. This is certainly much more than what you would get with the native Windows Wi-Fi manager. Netstumbler

File-Extensions.org

If there was a time when you have looked at a file extention and had no idea what type of file it is or what type of application to associate it with, then the listings at File-Extensions.org would be a great first step in solving your confusion. A great directory of file extensions and associated applications.

Mozilla Thunderbird 3 Email Client

I've been using Mozilla Thunderbird 3.0 for the last month or so and have been impressed with it's function and orginazation. It is slightly different in the way it organizes and displays email compared to ealier versions of Thunderbird. One major differrence is the way that it can display all emails from all your connected email accounts in one universal inbox, of course you can always select individual inboxes from your individual email accounts, so there is great flexability in interaction and display within the program. Highly recomeneed with great plug-ins that can be added. You can access POP3, IMAP and most HTTP(Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail, etc...) based email once configued correctly along with the correct plug-in's added, well worth the time! Mozilla Thunderbird 3.0
