Once you get on the freeware train, it's hard to get off. You keep discovering something new that you now need to have, and can't imagine how you ever did without it before.

My "Useful Free Stuff" page has now expanded to just less than 50 items, all of which I use.

I am thankful to those people who spend their free time making stuff and giving it away. And in some cases, a free product doing the same thing already exists. Two of my favourite products replace other free ones that, in my opinion, have become bloated and slow and memory-hungry.
