If you read the hardware forum, you know my mobo died and I'm getting a new one. So I guess I have to reinstall my OS and software.

Other than Windows, Office, and Mozilla (my choice of browser), what other software do I need to install?

Here's my current list:
Media Player Classic
divx
xvid
trillian pro
winamp
winrar

Nimo Codec Pack

Norton AV
Nero

WinDVD

PowerDVD

I like PowerDVD much better than WinDVD.

RegCleaner is another one but it's not free anymore.
