I 'fix' computers quite often and always find myself installing the same few programs on every computer I reformat. I'll list a few programs that I feel are must haves and you guys add to it!
1. FireFox 3.5.2 (or latest version)
2. PC Wizard 2009
3. CCleaner
4. A multi-client IM program like Trillian or Pidgin
5. Skype
6. WinRAR or 7-zip
7. AVG Free 8.5
8. Open Office
9. VLC Media Player
10. ImgBurn
