Windows 7 - FREE Great Programs for Windows 7

Yet another one which I completely forgot about...

IESpell - Spellchecker for Internet Explorer - spellcheck your online forms and forum posts
ieSpell - Spell Checker add-on for Internet Explorer

..and a Torrent Client...

µTorrent - The Lightweight and Efficient BitTorrent Client

I use bitcomet and seems fine, version 0.99 is still the best one I have used.

Rather than going through the agony of installing (or trying to...?) my Nero 9 I decideed to try the Nero 7 Essentials CD that came with my new Liteon SmartErase iHAP422-08 DVD burner. I ran the autorun in compatability mode with Vista RTM just in case and it works.

So Nero works guys.

Thanks peter,

Great that I can use that as a fallback If I can't get another burner to run I got Version 7 with my USB burner but don't use Nero unless I have to due to the Bloat factor. may do a streamlined custom install

Glad to help. I just couldn't face another Nero 9 install like on my Vista rig....it took hours, not only to download, but also to install. It refused to install if I removed more than just the InCD part using the custom option and created 66....yes 66 restore points. Plus it wont update, you have to uninstall and reinstall from the web.

Nero are working on it. Obviously the customers are the beta testers here. Pretty obvious considering Nero 9 was issued so soon after Nero 8, and stupid me for not sticking with the tried and true - Nero 8.

So if you do install regular Nero, as against the "Essentials" type, disable System Restore beforehand...LOL.

Surprised that no one has tried / verified that Process Explorer (currently 11.3) works in Windows 7....

Time to fire up my Windows 7 VBox and see if it does....

CoreTemp works in 32 bit. Don't know about 64 bit.

Also Cpuz is working here.

Hi,

Process Explorer works fine for me .

SIW works great too SIW | System Information for Windows by Gabriel Topala

SIV is also excellent SIV - System Information Viewer

- trick with this one is to right click the little wizard that appears in the Notification area - and make your selections from there.

Also working fine are :

Malwarebytes, Rogue Remover Free, Glaryutilities, Paragon Partition Manager 9, Paragon Drive Backup 9.0 Express, Networx, Faststone Capture53, Faststone Image Viewer.
