Recently I reinstalled windows xp on my laptop.( I do this atleast four times a year! BREAK AND LEARN )
After that I got the real pain of installing all the necessary softwares to start with. But I keep forgetting all those s/w and links to them. (I know...Just google for them) So thought of scribbling some links here which I used.
1. Install all windows updates.
2. Antivirus (Get your own copy. I use F-Secure).
3. Firefox
4. Firefox plugins and addons
5. VLC Player
6. Flash Get Download manager
7. Real Player
8. 7Zip
