FREE Great Programs for Windows 7

[WindowsStar]

This should definitely be included...

Nitro PDF Reader: Nitro PDF Reader — The PDF Reader, Reimagined

Great find! This is definitely better than FoxIt.

Update: I am beginning to like this software less and less.

I did an upgrade tonight and it wiped out all my settings and took away my default PDF viewer from Adobe Reader. I spent a lot of time 8 months ago picking my settings when I started using this software so it was difficult to remember where they all were.

Plus on a side note: This software is difficult to use and understand when editing PDFs it does not remotely follow any normal windows editing, so you have to learn a whole new system. If the vendor would fix the editing and now the wiping out of settings I believe the software would be much much better. -WS

It's still in BETA - for this reason , if you report your issues back you may find them quite helpfull - they say that they want the development to be user driven and my brief visits to their site look encouraging

BETA??? I was wondering how version 6.1 could be BETA and I have been using it for almost a year...hummmm....I clicked the link and now see they are making a READER and I have the Professional version. My bad.

But if this is a full blown Professional Version and it acts this way, my fear is the READER will not be much better.

Here is what I have; same company: Nitro PDF Software — Create & Edit PDF Files

Here is a new system booster I came across
Advanced SystemCare Free - Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Download.com

New browser Avant Browser Home - Avant Browser, an ultra-fast browser with AutoFills, Flash Filter, AD/Popup Blocker, Online Bookmarks, Pirvate Browsing and RSS Reader, but NO Memory leak! I have been using it for a while, and I like it a lot. It is definitely more secure than IE, and lighter too.

Word of Warning... Advanced SystemCare is complete Garbage. Good for trashing an enemies system if you feel so inclined. Otherwise, avoid it. Just some friendly advice.

No, I don't think all of it is bad, just be cautious about the System Optimization section and perhaps for inexperienced users, avoid using its registry cleaner.

But overall, most of the tweaking apps embedded in it are OK to me.

See the author's Aug 6 comment:

CCleaner Enhancer 1.3 has been released. I have added support for the portable version of CCleaner and also a feature to uninstall the custom rules – just like you guys wanted.

Thank you for your feedback.
