I'm force to wipe my hard drive clean and re-installed all needed
applications, so I am attempting to find the best freeware in the
following categorys:

1)Back-up protection
2)Graphics editor(vector)
3)Atomic Time(for keeping pc clock accurate)
4)Small desktop callendar
5)MP3 Player
6)Ram Disk App
7)Anti-virus protection

A couple of years ago, I came across a site with a list of free
programs in various categorys, but cannot find it now. Does such a
site still exist?

P.S: Program recommdations relating the above would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks a lot.

Ok I'll give this a go why not. :o) Btw, you didn't specify the
operating system so I made an educated guess !
1)Back-up protection

My own backup.

2)Graphics editor(vector)
Click to expand...

Zoner Draw
http://www.zoner.com/support/download2.asp?ProductID=1
....you will have to register but the registrations free and they don't
put you on spam lists as far as I know. Use a separate email account
if you want to be sure, like Hotmail.

For #10 Weather Pulse http://www.tropicdesigns.net/software.html
from the site..
"A powerful Weather Image Display Program for the Internet. Display
popular Satellite images from around the globe, share images with your
friends and family, stay updated on current and expected weather
conditions, displays temperature in the Windows Task tray too, it's just
plain fun! Weather Pulse is Free for use."

I've been using it a few months now and like it. (win xp home).

Tell that to my father living at Arden and Arthur Kill. They stopped
using it, it cannot be corrected.

I only get as close to it as I get when going to the Mall, and the
stench is longer evident.(But perhaps when it rains...).
