Reload - List you essentials!

[Prophet]

Look like I'm going to reload my PC soon as it spat its dummy last night!! Its been 3 years since it was installed and has worked like a dream until last night!!

Being out of the loop for so long I've forgotten what I need so thought it would be interesting to see what everyone else loads up.

Please list your must have applications, tweaks etc for Windows XP

Photoshop
MSN (Why! )
Firefox with a few extensions
iTunes
CCleaner
Some form of AV and firewall
Power archiver
Video codecs

office
firefox + extensions
AV
iTunes
Steam
Divx

All my music (stored on 2nd pc so i can just copy it back over the network, no way i'm reburning 200cd's)

and then anything else as and when I may need them. Usually keep the setup programs for all the programs i've downloaded on the other pc's HDD so can always get anything back.

VLC media player and winamp are my biggest two. And also Opera for browsing...

Drivers (not going to get far without them)
Anti-Virus
Winamp (need me music)
Firefox
Trillian
Xfire
Winrar (couldnt live without it)
Mouse software + button config (Good ol' Logitech MX510)
Games
Office
Macromedia Suit
Photoshop

that seems about right. theres probably a few small programs i use and take for granted but that just about sums it up.

I also used to use an AquaDock which was handy but on my last reload i didn't bother with it.
