The Concise Guide to the Web


Useful software

2xExplorer

Required replacement for the standard explorer, shell replacement or not!


ACE

Here it is! The RAR-beater! Smaller, better, slower or something!


Hotmail

Free web-based E-mail. Now, that's something one can always use ...


Icq

The great, and still free, chat program. You can get it here, of course, but the site's not all that easy to navigate ...


LiteStep

Windows shell replacement for us who like to tweak a bit, cool!


Microsoft

Lots of useful stuff here, if you can find it ...


Opera

The third web browser, a better alternative than ever before! Does the works, is both smaller and faster than the two others, and is now free to personal use as well!


RAR

A program for file compression, like Winzip. RAR, however, handles .rar-files, a slower but even more compressed format. Very good!


RealPlayer

For streaming sound and video.


Shockwave

For interactive sites, animations and sound.


Winamp

Plays CD's, Mp3's, Wav's, MOD's and just about any other sound format you can think of. Also has thousands of plugins and millions of skins available, just to keep you going.


Winzip

The best (?) program for working with those ever-present .zip-files. Get it, you'll need it.
