- moverman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hi all,
Thank you Selvin, for putting 100-downlaods.com here!
Being the owner of the site, I've read all comments and some of them are useful. Especially those saying the server got overloaded ;) Within a few weeks, the site will undergo a major upgrade. It will have better looks and a clearer structure. And yes: I will eventually remove the word "essential"... So feel welcome to visit my site again in the near future! - moverman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0@hax0r:
I don't have a blog, but I'm going to start a new site which might be more fun than my online diary ;) - notpete, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hardly essential downloads. I thought the point would be to list the best (and essential) in each category, not list all available downloads.
- audikyle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I would never classify AIM, MSN messenger, and IE as essential downloads, but it is still a nice list.
Dugg. - hax0r, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This is a good list too, but moverman's site is nicely organized

- PeterHugo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hi,
There is another freeware site to digg...
What do you think of these Freeware Publishing Site ....
http://digg.com/software/The_Freeware_Publishing_Site - modpancake, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I submitted the same exact link 122 days ago, but it never made it to the front page. Congratulations all 1,940 of you... this is great "news".
- tsupersonic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"And yes.. it is the most popular browser because it is the most controversial and bugged/bloated too.. haha"
Bloated? No way, although you can make it that way. Bugged, definetly. I only like IE because it starts up faster than Firefox, but my favorite browser is Opera, opens up faster than IE & Firefox, blows Firefox & IE in rendering times, well that is on my computer. I even applied Firefox tweaks, still a great browser. IE is not an essential download, it already comes with Windows, instead download Firefox and you will be cool. - foxhoundadmin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0adobe reader
avg anit-virus
divx codec
firefox
itunes (+quicktime)
microsoft anti-spyware
winrar
zonealarm
everything you need. everything's free. everything works. however, there are other things you need, like java and flash, for example. you can do without firefox, but everything else IS essential--even divx (it's becoming the new compression standard). of course, there ARE alternatives. - selvin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0thnx all for commenting...
wats with this winrar thing?
looks like everyones crazy 'bout it..
don't worry guys will make a new site with shareware and stuff - grandmachismo, on 01/11/2009, -0/+0Maybe people would find this site useful, too:
Ether to Essential
http://24houreclipse.wordpress.com/category/ether/ ...
There are also other categories such as PC games and Online sites & Services. This is a site that really values the input of the discerning user - If you are mindful of great software that has been omitted, submit your take on it. This is where it can go from being submitted in the 'Ether' section to highly accepted in the 'Graduate' section with the right input.
Constructive criticism appreciated (the site is pretty new). I hope you find something you like and/or something you miss. Enjoy.
PS: If you /do/ like it, all I ask is that someone diggs(or similar) it to make it a place that more people will see, so they in turn make it a /better/ place (I need input from other people - I can't know everything).
GrandMachismo - towsonu2003, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0digged bc you specified this is for win...
- foxhoundadmin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0where's winrar? :P
- foxhoundadmin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0digitaldeath, you know you don't have to download them all. some people would rather use one application over another. don't be so one-sided.
- sonic767, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This is the first time I've seen an html page were more than half of the line count was devoted to CSS. It's endlessly repeated CSS too, I knew Microsoft Office generated bad HTML, but this is amazing!
- fenix25, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Good selection, lotta ads.
- hax0r, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0moverman, thanks for putting that site up, what else do you do? do you have a blog or anything? thanks again!
- sparkmonkeyz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0first, winrar sux. and second. it is like someone composed a website with almost every thing they knew of that was free. there is almost every free browser on it
No Digg. - spyres, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Not really. Just being sarcastic.
- 1ivewire, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0So I should download and install all 100 of these? Also, some of these titles are trial versions or crippleware, definitely not freeware.
- Yellowstone, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Ramoone digg in my pants and find me the Hoo Hoo show!!!
Ramoone you're fired!! Bring me Mr. Sulu!! - firehydra2k, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This list is crap. This makes me want to ***** ***** on top 100 lists more...
- nightfox, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"Internet Explorer (installer) | Still the most popular browser"
And yes.. it is the most popular browser because it is the most controversial and bugged/bloated too.. haha - CaseyB, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I can't believe there's nothing from http://www.sysinternals.com/ under the "System" heading.
- 5m0k3, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1"no winrar wa?"
