Express Webpictures....I think its called something else now, but look up express webpictures and it will come up. It allows you to download all pictures and video from an entire website, even works for websites you have to log in to, such as porn sites yay! Every porn freak should have it:)

Ghostsurf is a cool program. It covers up your IP address by routing it through anonymous hubs and routers so that not even your ISP can tell what your real IP is. The program has a lot of bug though and you have to pay a yearly fee for the service of using the anonymous hubs and routers. Comes in handy if you are paranoid though.

of course any Anti-virus. I use norton, but if you don't want to pay for one, you can get AVG for free, and its pretty good stuff.

Microsoft Windows XP Power toys. Virtual Desktop Manager is my favorite power toy. Alt-Tab Task Switcher is awesome also...and they are complelty free from microsofts site!

Pretty much all the programs pizzaman listed as well:D

I always need to download from rapidshare, but I can't do it that much becasue of the wait time. I REALLY need this, you would not know how much trouble you're saving me. So... what program is best for that sort of thing?

I don't think waiting time is as much of a concern as having to wait for 72 hours or something like that before you can download another file. I used to use RapidShare to download Nintendo 64 ROMs, but I couldn't find them all. I have all of the Nintendo 64 ROMs, including the ESA-protected ones, now. But I don't see what you mean.

you say you got a N64 full set? I ma trying to build one, but english titles only. I'm up to 304 roms for it so far. How am I doing? its tough finding a complte n64 us/euro release list.

[Iconoclast]

Oh, no. I download only Nintendo 64 games that I own. Even the ESA-protected ones. NES games are harder. I own five NES games for my console. Four out of the five are ESA-protected. The fifth one I can get from here at CoolROM.com is just fine. But other sites give me things like these when I'm looking for a Zelda ROM:

Zelda DX (hacked) [a2]
Zelda DX (hacked)
Zelda DX V2.0 (hacked)The others say Zelda Adventures of Link, Zelda 2, all hacked ROMs. I just want Zelda, no hacks! Nimrods. But eventually, I got the standard Zelda, SMB 1, 2, and 3 ROMs I was looking for. So yes, I can PRETTY much any ROM. I even burned my own CD with at least one emulator, after researching all of them to see which one I think is best, for each console. The only emulator I didn't properly configure was MESS. I have no idea how to work that thing, and I don't really want to know. I just own an N64, NES, Xbox, and Xbox 360. But I burned one emulator for all consoles I could find, and made sure they could run properly. It was very hard, too, because I had to search for all of those BIOS/BIN files. But I got them. Mainly, I'm pretty persisten with Google, but my searches tend to overcomplicate things. Eventually, though, I find the ROM or file I want.
