Belarc works but it doesn't recognize any antivirus program just like my health report doesn't. Must be something in Avast.

Hi

I have Threatfire v4.0 free version running without a hitch on 7000 x86.

You run it as well as your usual resident anti - nasty app. ( avast in my case )

ThreatFire AntiVirus - Behavioral Virus and Spyware Protection

Download ThreatFire Free

Only works on x86 at the moment - lets hope they make an x64 compatible version .

Hi Shawn,

I use Sumatra pdf reader. Works on every o/s I've tried it on. Completely free, no toolbars or nagging. It's tiny at 1.2mb and IMO better rendering than the Foxit. Extremely simple interface is a matter of taste , of course.

If you need codecs , I've been using these for some time and they work great for playing almost any file . They are for vista but work on Windows 7 as well .

a free OSS utility i fell in love with...

TestDisk is a powerful free data recovery software! It was primarily designed to help recover lost partitions and/or make non-booting disks bootable again when these symptoms are caused by faulty software, certain types of viruses or human error (such as accidentally deleting a Partition Table). Partition table recovery using TestDisk is really easy.
TestDisk can

• Fix partition table, recover deleted partition
• Recover FAT32 boot sector from its backup
• Rebuild FAT12/FAT16/FAT32 boot sector
• Fix FAT tables
• Rebuild NTFS boot sector
• Recover NTFS boot sector from its backup
• Fix MFT using MFT mirror
• Locate ext2/ext3 Backup SuperBlock
• Undelete files from FAT, NTFS and ext2 filesystem
• Copy files from deleted FAT, NTFS and ext2/ext3 partitions.

TestDisk has features for both novices and experts. For those who know little or nothing about data recovery techniques, TestDisk can be used to collect detailed information about a non-booting drive which can then be sent to a tech for further analysis. Those more familiar with such procedures should find TestDisk a handy tool in performing onsite recovery.

while i have spinrite to work with this is also a nice addition to recovering data....
