Those are always good. Little sites that offer simple links to stuff. This link is nice in looking for specific task minded software...

Windows Download Hubs

Download Hubs help you to easily and quickly find software that performs a specific task. But here's the twist: we won't just recommend the "best apps ever" and force you to take our word for it.

Instead, our editors create a list of hand picked software titles that can accomplish the task and you can make a choice based on your own criteria.

Whenever you install a freeware or shareware always remember to use the 'custom install'. That way you can eliminate some extra toolbar or advertising bot from installing along with it.

f.lux

Ever notice how people texting at night have that eerie blue glow?

Or wake up ready to write down the Next Great Idea, and get blinded by your computer screen?

f.lux makes your computer screen look like the room you're in, all the time. When the sun sets, it makes your computer look like your indoor lights. In the morning, it makes things look like sunlight again.
 
Tell f.lux what kind of lighting you have, and where you live. Then forget about it. f.lux will do the rest, automatically.

IrfanView is a nifty little freeware graphics program. It's quick and doesn't fuck around when you have specific tasks in mind. Does everything you need to edit pics. It handles batch file support, optimizes, filters, etc. Allows for plugin support, too. Better than ACDSee and it's small and fast.
