I like this one prog I have, called End It All, that will close any programs you want with a mouse click or two, so you dont have to ctrl-alt-delete every time you want to free some memory for a game like, oh, I dont know, OFP tounge.gif

One very usefull program for freeing up memory is AnalogX MaxMem. Shows how much free memory you have and with the click of your mouse frees up as much as possible.

I used to really like Morpheus, until they changed it to the gnutella type format, then I got KaZaA,the original form of Morpheus but, its full of popups and spyware crap, total memory hog. I have heard that there is a KaZaA lite available that doesnt have all the spyware but havent looked into it yet...
