What's a program? Don't you mean an app? xD
>>51600807
windows 10 was never popular
>>51600848
I liked how you could change the color of the UI

I stil use winamp, it has nice visualisations
not a program, but fits
Pidgin, RealJukebox, Bonzai Buddy, WordPerfect
>>51600890
I used to play a lot of Tribes and HALO on PC. There was always a consistent supply of horny stupid teenage girls willing to talk on MSN. Its a miracle that my dick survived my teenage years.
The internet used to be a much better place.
Real Browser
>>51600708
There's a reason that was forgotten.
>>51600932
That wasn't forgotten, it was taken down by the government.
>>51601050
The organization behind it was sued for more money than exists on earth IIRC.

I am a Web dev and sometimes I have to deal with customer complaints with people who contact us with email addresses from that site
They are consistently the most pretentious and arrogant people we interact with.
It's like if /pol/ anons got old and decided to create their own site.
They feel so enlightened and above us all while being fucking retarded.
>>51600708
No ones forgotten about it, you retards talk about it in every post.
>>51600964
good times
>>51600979
I still use pidgin for hangouts
>>51601086
That kind of happened, but it got shot down and brought to 105 mil (which is still a lot)
>>51600959
The Well even pre-dates the world wide web. It's predecessor almost pre-dates the internet.
>>51601261
this shit would slow my computer so much
>>51600596
>negro burning rom
We used to have walk uphill, both ways, just to play a DivX;-) on Linux.
>>51601299
smirked, but it was a joke on emperor nero.
>>51600848
*nudge*
>>51600890
tfw don't know that feel
Not software but IDGAF
>>51600764
Oh god
>tfw knowing one day people will ask this unironically
Thanks for reminding me anon.
>>51600989
>Tribes
As in Tribal Wars (makes me wonder if you're directly translating "Tribos", which is its portuguese counterpart)? Miss the shit out of that game. Also used to play Halo CE. Good times.
>>51601261
Lol, before they went 'online' they had a very convenient way to download videos online.
>>51600744

>>51601261
Fuck that shit, I hated everything about it and its kinky media formats
>>51600596

>>51601778

You're alright
How do I make my foobar look like this?
>>51601888
Get the Shpeck plugin, then you can play WinAMP visualisations
I'm using MilkDrop 2
>>51601854

it was a fine piece of software until they decided to add more and more all-in-1 features like picture viewer, iso mounter, media player, archiver, spreadsheet viewer, instant messenger, firewall, and virtual printer.
>>51601179
/pol/ faggots always strike me as being old.
>>51600744
Fuck off
>>51600910

RIP Mosaic
>>51601537
ACD See would be more fitting
>>51601768
Still use it, but really just for comics. BT is superior in every way but Sharethefiles generally has any Marvel or DC comic you'd want, and it's organized decently enough, so you don't have to waste time searching for individual issues all over the web.
![10years_olddesign28[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/ygdyPyf.jpg "10years_olddesign28[1].jpg")
It's been so long
Still unmatched.
My copy didn't register properly so I had to put in the serial key every time I opened it.
Eventually I knew it by heart.
I don't think half the "features" even did anything, except maybe infect your shitty 486 with more viruses.

Inb4 programming gets renamed to "apping"

Yea. It's the only file sharing software that actually helped you discover new bands and shit.
>>51602287
visual based apping where you get to subscribe for more function modules and pre made guis
>>51601384
Fuck, Dat nostalgia feels.
Why did MSN Messenger die?
Also I liked Ares Galaxy for dling songs and porn
>>51602332
Because Windows attempting
>>51602344
attempting to expand and make more money ? I guess, with their buying/bundling it with skype I guess lol
Bitches don't even know the edge this gave me in high school.

Daily reminder that Nero did his best to save Rome from the fire that the Christians started and housed the refugees in his own palace.

Root in hell piece of shit.

Based anon
>>51603738
Not really. Use eDonkey, it's way more safer and up-to-date.
>>51601586
>>51604433
>altavista
>not HotBot
HotBot was the first search engine that worked.
>>51604433
Yes, but yahoo was probably better than alta vista back then. Google instantly kicked ass with their algorithms when it came out. I remember that well.
>>51604547
But eDonkey isn't eMule????? BTW I liked Morphxt and Chemina (a jew leecher mod)
>>51604433
Didn't netscape crash every time it encountered invalid html code?
>>51601537
Still the best photo viewer on Windows
it's got a 64 bit version now
>>51600596
>>51600744
I still use both of these
>>51600596
Still using Nero 12 Micro for the Nero Express program, haven't found anything else as light weight and easy for people to understand without calling me and asking how to burn a DVD.
>>51601348
Uh oh
>>51600979
Wtf. I still use Pidgin.
>>51601126
>that fucking dial up sound

>>51602076
>>51600708
Truth be told, i am forgetting about Firefox.
I literally cannot belive i would come to use IE.
But i would rather this than something made by Mozilla or Google.
>>51600910
Used it before I knew what torrents were.

What was that one piece of software that was released in the 90's that claimed to double ram, but in reality did nothing?
>>51602274
Kek I used this during y2k together with mx flash

Just like you

>>51601261
As a 90s Mac user I remember the jump from Realtime to QuickTime being one of the most absurd jumps in quality. Like going from morse code to the telephone big.
>>51602076
Then open lycos, altavista, angelfire, hotmail...

imgburn is for burning ISOs, useless for people looking to burn their photos, or those stupid videos of their children.

You can burn things from directories without an ISO too.
Unless you mean convert shit into DVD compatible. But anyway, any modern chinese dvd player can "see" jpg avi and mp4 among most other but the newer ones like webm or mkv.
>>51601941

>"In later versions of Fast Hack'em, disk copying could be performed without the computer if two Commodore 1541 disk drives were available. The software would be loaded with a Commodore 64, the two drive option would be selected which transferred software to the drives' controller memory, and the serial cable could be disconnected from the computer. Any number of copies could be performed as long as neither drive was powered down"

Yahoo! Messenger
Fell into a state of disrepair even as Yahoo's logo changed.
Apparently relaunched as a video-with-no-audio chat app called Livetext for iOS.
>>51601316

No, this was literally the only game that I was playing when AIM was in its heyday and you'd be able to trick scrubs by a href'ing your link through an IM.
It was fun being 8 and having an internet connection.

my mom took computer science in the early 90s when I was old enough to know how to go online and I just did whatever like booting full chats of people on aol with progs and my parents account would get tos and they have to call to get back online
like onetime the cops came for something I did online but I don't rember what the internet used to be fun as fuck but now its boring
>>51606547
fuck, I LOVED cool edit pro.
I think it's still around though. adobe bought it and it's called "audition" now
Sometimes I wonder about the amount of nudes that could've been leaked if this website were more popular during its peak of 10k users.
You'll never be able to play Emogame for the first time again...

The sad thing is that HTML5 animations perform so obscenely poorly compared to what was possible back in the 2000s on PIIIs
All memeing aside, I really enjoyed playing Oregon Trail II on Windows as a kid. That and some racing game with a a ferrari and a turbo boost I forget the name of.
Where do you guys go to not deal with the internet being so shit nowadays?
I still don't know why I come here after being here since 2005.
What is the best server software available?

You just proved his point. Windows 7 is out since 2008.
Windows 10 was released a couple months ago.
>>51600890
It's still easy. Just not fun, and ever since 3rd world countries discovered the internet it became a disaster. Ugly shits everywhere.
I mean, if some random black dude on chatroulette keeps finding these cunts, anyone can.
>>51606871
Oregon Trail had cool graphics and an awesome hunting game.
>>51606795
I found the name of the game was Lamborghini: American Challenge.

They also still use IE and Windows XP. Most Japs are a decade behind the rest of the civilized world when it comes to technology.
>>51602274
Macromedia achieved in early 2000's what W3 wasn't able to achieve even now. That program alone was unbelievably powerful and intuitive, it's the main edge Flash has over HTML5 and why online games will remain Flash-based for as long as possible.
Fuck Steve Jobs, he wanted to kill Flash and never provided an alternative.
