FileZilla
Sometimes you need to set up an FTP server to transfer a few files to a buddy. FileZilla is an opensource FTP server which seems quite solid and feature-rich. They have an FTP client too. Personally I wouldn’t leave an FTP server running – just set it up when you need it then turn it off again.

Google Chrome
Last year Google released their own browser and I started using it from day one. I much prefer it to IE (although I still use IE for work stuff), and FF makes me barf. It’s quick and it has some neat features that IE8 only now seems to be implementing.

uTorrent
Shhh – we’re not supposed to do filesharing. Anyway, if you need to get a torrent, then uTorrent is a great little – as in small footprint – tool to do just that. You can throttle the bandwidth it uses and schedule times etc.
