Popcorn (http://www.ultrafunk.com/products) is a freeware ultra-lightweight POP3/SMTP e-mail client for Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP.

It works as a client/server application,reading mail "directly" from POP3 servers.

It is ideally suited for "on the road" mail access,for scanning,reading and sending mail over slow connections. It supports multiple user profiles,enabling you to read and send mail from any number of accounts.

It requires no installation,no data is saved locally other than a portable .INI file containing account information.

JDownloader is open source,platform independent and written completely in Java.

It simplifies downloading files from One-Click-Hosters like Rapidshare.com or Megaupload.com - not only for users with a premium account but also for users who don't pay. It offers downloading in multiple paralell streams, captcha recognition, automatical file extraction and much more.

Of course JDownloader is absolutely free of charge. Additionally, many "link encryption" sites are supported - so you just paste the "encrypted" links and JD does the rest. JDownloader can import CCF, RSDF and new DLC files.
