Which Programs That I Have Listed Are Worth It

I dont do alot just download mp3's and videos I also want to be able to edit my
racing videos and not sure whats a good program? I also would like to speed up my computer if its possible and maybe a the new photoshop if its here?

heres some of the list I found in the verifieds in a can, I dont know what most of these are and how I would benifit from them, can someone explain a little. Not on all of them cause I dont want to waste to much peoples time. Thanks

File:Acrobat Reader 5.1.exe

File:Ad-aware 6.0.exe

File:Baldur's Gate God Mode.zip

File:BoostXP.zip

File:Cheat 'O Matic.zip

File:CSE Html Validator.exe

File:DBpowerAMP Music Converter.exe

File:DFX 6.1 for Windows Media Player + Keygen.exe

File:DirectX 9.0.exe

File:Diskeeper v.7 Full.exe

File:Easy Cleaner 1.7f.exe

File:Go Back 3 Deluxe.exe

File:GoBack Update.exe

File:hpotchamber.zip

File:Internet Explorer 6 SP1.exe

u're probably best off doing a search on google to find out info on each

Adobe reader is a *.pdf viewer
adaware checks ur comp for adware & spyware
directx 9, read up about it on microsoft website
ditto for internet explorer service pack 1

The ones u probably want to look into are directx9, IE6 sp1, boostxp and virtuadub which u can get easily off the internet

Talk about lazy. And I know lazy. Jeez!

Thanks ilw

Did you not read that? I was just trying to find out some quick info. All I am really looking for is for a few people to say whic ones they like and are worth it. I dont want to know all the fuctions they do.

Don't take my comments seriously. Didn't you see the self effacing humor in my 1st post? :) Peace.

For video editing, try to find Adobe Premeire. Adobe's products are of high quality and Adobe Premeire is one of the best video editing programs.

File:Acrobat Reader 5.1.exe -- You want the latest version of this. It's so you can view pdf files and have the features that the free one doesn't have.

File:Ad-aware 6.0.exe -- Must have. It helps remove spyware and adware crap from your computer.

File:Baldur's Gate God Mode.zip -- If you like to cheat and play Baldur's Gate, sure.

File:BoostXP.zip -- Probably some tweak program. Most of the tweaks dont give enough noticable performance boost to warrant using them though.

File:Cheat 'O Matic.zip -- Dunno what this is.

File:CSE Html Validator.exe -- Dunno what this is.

File:DBpowerAMP Music Converter.exe -- Dunno what this is.

File:DFX 6.1 for Windows Media Player + Keygen.exe -- Dunno what this is.

* File:DirectX 9.0.exe -- Must have. This is the latest version of DirectX and is required for newer games.

File:Diskeeper v.7 Full.exe -- Good app. It helps keep your harddrives defragged and stuff. I prefer Norton Systemworks though.

File:Easy Cleaner 1.7f.exe -- Dunno what this is.

File:Go Back 3 Deluxe.exe -- Don't bother unless you screw up your computer a lot and are constantly reformatting.

File:GoBack Update.exe -- Again, don't bother unless you screw up your computer a lot and are constantly reformatting.

File:hpotchamber.zip -- Dunno what this is.

* File:Internet Explorer 6 SP1.exe -- Must have. It updates Internet Explorer and fixes some security flaws and that

* If you use Windows Update often, you will already have these and will have no reason to download.

the good stuff in that list is free.

Ad-aware is a spyware removal tool. Download the free version here. Along with that I would highly recommend
downloading Spybot Search & Destroy, another spyware utility. Get it here

Adobe Acrobat is, like ilw said, is for reading Adobe .pdf documents. It's really a must-have now...
If you don't need to write .pdf documents, only read them, go for the free Reader version.
I'd go for version 5.0.5, as 6 is still a bit buggy. It's here

IE6sp1 is the latest version of Internet Explorer, as released by Microsoft. You can get it for free
by visiting the Windows Update site, located here. Be sure to get all the
Critical Updates while you're there. And you can also get Direct X 9 while you're there.
It's basically just a graphics rendering runtime. Or you can get it seperately here

Also, as ilw said, you might want to look at VirtualDub and TMPGenc.
TMPGenc is a video conversion tool, and VirtualDub can do lots of other stuff for video files.
Get them here and here
