SpaceSniffer.
SpaceSniffer is a freeware tool for visually mapping the files and folders on your disks so you can easily see which ones are taking up the most space. It's pretty cool to be able to zoom in and out of the folders with its cool animation effects. SpaceSniffer is small, doesn't require installation and doesn't write its settings anywhere, which makes it perfect for space sniffing anywhere.

The faxing software missing from Windows Vista.
One of my big grudges of Windows Vista is the lack of faxing capabilities as did Windows XP. I needed to fax something from my computer a few days ago and had to search online for a program that lets me transmit faxes through my modem. At first I wanted to find a free program but didn't find one that worked, so I had to venture into shareware territory. 32bit Fax is the one program I found that works with Windows Vista. It's set up as a virtual printer so it works from any program. When you're ready to transmit your document, just print it to the fax driver and from there you can send it via fax over your phone line. I found it very easy to use and well worth the money spent.
The Billy Mays key.

Each time you hit the Caps Lock key, you'll hear one of four different Billy Mays quotes as heard on his famous TV commercials. Now your computer can have the same lively, enthusiastic personality as he did.
