Freemake Video Converter

This is freeware at its best

After trying several freeware and shareware converters I found most were flakey and unstable. This one ticks all the boxes. It may not give extensive configuration possibilities as some reviewers are saying but it works straight out of the box, does what it claims and is stable and reliable. Most output formats are catered for that 99 of people will need. Its not fast, but its quick enough. It does provide a direct link to your output file so you can view it using your default media player (or in case you forgot where it saved it). It looks like updates are available fairly frequently and its a freeware project that is still very active in development and support so we should in theory expect it to get even better. If you're a bit miffed when your compact camera kicks out a 250mb AVI file for 1 minuite of video that you want to share on the web or email then this is your free answer. Price: Free Trial ($19.95)

Rightload

Excellent utility

If you are FTP savvy and need a quick way of uploading files to your server this tool is ideal and is much quicker than using a normal ftp client. Image resizing and Facebook support is included but this plugin can be omitted at install time. I have used it on several machines and can recommend it. Great for quick backups and also works with Livedrive. Price: Free

BurnAware Free

Didn't work on a variety of machines

Uncomplicated and unbloated software is always welcome but it is pre-requisite that it works. This program doesn't. The burn speed setting is always ignored and all I have got from it is high speed coasters. Never Again! Price: Free

FastStone Photo Resizer

Excellent freeware title

There are plenty of watermarkers around in the freeware scene but not all have the functionality this one has. For a free product this is excellent. Price: Free
