FREEBIES
Free Games, Free Office Programs, and Free Utility software
Please review my other pages for Freebies pertaining to that part of a PC software or operating system.
GAMES
Most people like to play games on their PC, I highly recommend visiting the good folks at Pogo for good, FREE, clean (virus free) games and entertainment.
Pogo is brought to you by the same people of EA Sports.
A golf game so realistic you think your on the links, registration is required, better not let the boss catch you.
Want to fly a helicopter? Click on it.
SOFTWARE
I cannot stress the importance of a Anti Virus solution, either buy one or use a FREE one and I highly recommend AVG Anti Virus for all your needs
As I recommended in the pages Browsers and E-Mail you can obtain a far superior browser and e-mail program for your Windows PC, other than Internet Explorer and Outlook Express or Windows Live which by default comes pre-installed. You will be amazed at what Firefox and Google can do to your Browser to enrich your computing experience!
If you do go with Firefox, I highly recommend the Gutil add-on.
How would you like to save the videos you watch on-line to your PC for playback anytime you want? I enjoy the "FREE" Ant Video Download Toolbar.
Need a Office Suite software for "FREE"?
Sun Microsystems offers Open Office for your office needs.
I like Picasa from Google for keeping track of my images and editing, an exceptional product for the novice user. For advanced needs theres the GIMP.
Want to make a photo story?
How about Microsoft Photo Story 3 its FREE- click here.
UTILITIES
I urge you caution in using any registry cleaner if you make a
incorrect deletion or modification it can render your computer an expensive paperweight.
With the above statement declared, I must admit after putting this CCleaner product through its paces, I highly recommend it. It does a magnificent job in removing temporary files that Windows leaves behind. While I have used the registry cleaner on some seriously dysfunctional computers your on your own. If you run the registry cleaner CCleaner will ask you to make a backup of your registry - highly advised to save to desktop and a jump drive.
Secunia to check for software vulnerability with your PC.
Scan, detect, and update vulnerable programs.
The Secunia Software Inspectors are the first internal vulnerability scanners that focus solely on detection and assessment of missing security patches and end-of-life programs - the result is an unprecedented level of scan accuracy. Scanning for missing security patches and vulnerabilities have never been easier or more precise.
If you are using a paid AVG anti virus protection they include a web site advisor, I recommend learning what this little add-on is all about. A free site advisor is available from McAfee for both Microsoft's Internet Explorer and Mozilla's Firefox browsers. Click here for McAfee's Site Advisor's site.
A great feature availaibe for free is 
Is a company that offers an alternate way for your computer to get “directions” on the Internet as well as control exactly what is allowed to be accessed by your home or business network. This is one of those tools that has value for some and creates privacy concerns for others; See Security page.
Best FREE Firewall is from Zone Alarm, click here for web site.
A firewall is considered a first line of defense in protecting private information. For greater security, data can be encrypted.
