    Useful software

    Can we gather a collection of free software we use?

    I'll start. Taskbar Shuffle - lets you move applications around in the taskbar. Honestly, it's more useful than it sounds!!

    Internet explorer - seem to be on it most of the day. It contains everything from porn to a bunch of nerds moaning about house prices and immigartion.
    Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

    I preferred version 1!
