Huey is missing:

Huey is a freeware HTML colour generator that converts RGB values to Hex and from Hex back to RGB. Or pick directly from any part of the screen with the Colour Pipette feature.

To take one application I know well,
“Ethereal - local area network administration = Wireshark - network administration”

Another free program to add to Education or Games. Orbiter, a completely free Spaceflight Simulator by Dr. Martin Schweiger of the UK.
ORBITER is a free flight simulator that goes beyond the confines of Earth’s atmosphere. Launch the Space Shuttle from Kennedy Space Center to deploy a satellite, rendezvous with the International Space Station or take the futuristic Delta-glider for a tour through the solar system - the choice is yours.
But make no mistake - ORBITER is not a space shooter. The emphasis is firmly on realism, and the learning curve can be steep. Be prepared to invest some time and effort to brush up on your orbital mechanics background.

SpywareBlaster: Spyware prevention: http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html
SpywareGuard: Spyware prevention: http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/sgdownload.html
Active Virus Shield is actually powered by “Kaspersky Antivirus” which is the best AntiVirus on the market.
Comodo Firewall, stomps the competition too. Wins allmost every test.
You might want to delete Sygate Firewall from the list. It’s been taken over by symantec and it is not updated anymore.

Would want to suggest doPDF ( http://www.dopdf.com ) to the list of Office programs (this one doesn’t use ghostscript as pdfcreator does, so no additional downloads required).
March 5th, 2007 at 4:37 am
For browsers, I would add offbyone (www.offbyone.com).
It’s is not good to use as main browser (maybe not even as 2nd choice) but it has it’s uses if you want to limit the resources that you’re using - I often have firefox (main browser) and offbyone to access some sites that do work with it, freeing more memory to other uses.
From the site:
* Implements full HTML 3.2 support plus many HTML 4.0 extensions, including Frames.
* Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) support provided by optional OpenSSL libraries for secure navigation to https:// addresses.
* Incorporates a tabbed browsing interface.
* Extras include image animation, WAV and AVI playback and the ability to automatically launch external applications for file types that are not supported internally.
* Packaged in one self-contained 1.2 MB application. Can be compressed down to about 460KB for distribution.
* Completely self-contained, does not require the presence of any other browser.
* Does not require any installation, browser can be run directly from a CD or over a network.
* Has a unique Find-In-Files feature that can search the non-tag text of multiple HTML files.
* Has a unique image zoom option.
Off By One Browser Limitations
* No JavaScript support (so no pop-up ad windows).
* No applet, plug-in or Flash support.

Irfan View and Ad-aware are not free for business users.
And Comodo Firewall is worth to be added in the list.
Unless the number “300″ is really important to you
