Yes, the Noiseware Community Edition is free and FAST, FAST, FAST. A 13mpix from my 5d takes 2 to 3 minutes using Neatimage on a P4-2800 with 1 gig of ram and striped raptors. With Noiseware it takes 10 to 15 seconds.

Scroll down to the middle of the page for the Community Edition.

This app rules!! verypowerful for being free.

GimpShop. Like Photoshop, but free and portable (read: available for multi-platforms, ie; PC, Mac, Linux, etcetra).

Bookmark Master is a freeware program that looks through your IE Favorites folder for bad links. You than have the option of either editing them or deleting them.

Never heard of that one before... Have you seen this? http://www.rawtherapee​.com/?mitem=2

I'll add a couple more since quick thread search didn't find them:

[These are windows only I think.]

EasyGPS -
http://www.easygps.com​/
For Downloading Tracks from my GPS

Geosetter -
http://www.geosetter.d​e/en/
For syncing those tracks with my images, and embedding Geotag (lat, long, Country, State, City keywords) directly into my image file (including RAW.) Which is then recognized by programs like Lightroom and Flickr to display photo locations on a map. (Lightroom opens webpage for Google Maps.)

Microsoft Pro PhotoTools:
http://www.microsoft.c​om/prophoto/downloads/​tools.aspx
Also for geotagging, I started using Geosetter because it could embed to RAW. Since I last tried it, and requested this feature, it appears MS has added support for writing to the RAW files also. May try it out again in the future.

Since someone brought this thread back to life, let me re-remind everyone of my new favorite. A member of another forum recommended a program called FileBox eXtender. A program to allow you to quickly navigate to a different folder (user defined favorites and recent) when saving without having drill up and down through layers and layers of nested folders. According to their website:

Doesn't seem to work with 40D files...

But in any event, Raw Therapee is the kiddy.
