PDF-XChange Viewer 2.0.48

March 3rd, 2010 ajua No comments

PDF-XChange Viewer is a freeware PDF viewer that is fast and has plenty of options for a freeware alternative to Adobe Reader.

I think this is better than Foxit Reader in many ways. I have found some files that Foxit can’t render properly but PDF-XChange Viewer shows them well.

Fortunatly for us, Adobe started to slim down its own Adobe Reader for speed and resource usage. The latest versions are great, but if you want an alternative, PDF-XChange Viewer is the best I have found so far.

Notepad2 4.1.24

March 2nd, 2010 ajua No comments

This freeware text editor can replace notepad and add many useful features. It’s very fast at opening files and supports highlighting of several code formats.

The only downside is that it doesn’t have tabs and according to its author there is no plan to do so. Besides this fact, the simplicity of the interface and its options make it a personal favorite.

For a more robust editor with tab support, more features and plugin capabilities, Notepad++ it’s the best.

Halite is a lightweight BitTorrent client. It is free and open source.

It has a little less features than most clients, but it consumes very little resources and can be controlled remotely via web. It is second to uTorrent, but is very good nonetheless.

There is a x64 (64-bit) version. You can download a portable version as well.
