wizmouse. allows you to scroll unfocused windows on windows 7 and 8 to copy the linux behavior. it's pretty neat, but this functionality really should be built into windows by default

>360 Total Security Essential
Free and super lightweight antivirus that uses 3 different AV engines (chink, bitdefender, avira).

>DesktopOK
When I had an nvidia card sometimes updating my drivers would fuck up my desktop icons. It's quite hand to have a program that restores your icon positions.

>>52230256
lol, all those functionalities are accessible from the titlebar/window decoration, why there is a right click menu on it anyways
