| Desktop Backup | GFI Backup. MedLook has a built-in backup but it may not be the most convenient method available. This tool allows you a lot of flexibility, and speed, when doing backups on your local network. This tool is free as well. http://www.gfi.com/ |
| Malwarebytes Anti-Malware | This is a great free anti-spam utility. http://www.malwarebytes.org/ |
| Microsoft Security Essentials | This utility is free from Microsoft. We have only provided a link to the download site as there is a different download for each Windows Operating system. |
| Offsite Backups | Partnering with Offsite Computer Backup we think we have a winning combination for features and price. Enough cannot be said regarding regular backups. Offsite backups are worth their weight in gold when you need them. The tools here allow you to do much more than the highly advertised personal backup tools available. Just how much can you afford to lose? One week, one day, one hour. You chose. Be sure to give the 30-day free trial a chance to convince you it’s worth every penny. https://www.offsitecomputerbackup.com/medlook |
| Open Office | If you can’t afford the constant upgrades to Microsoft Office (Word and Excel) consider this free alternative. In some ways, Open Office has more functionality than MS Office. http://www.openoffice.org/ |
| PDF Printer | DoPDF. Many times it is necessary to intercept something sent to the printer. This little utility is perfect for this task. After installing this tool any document can be sent to the “PDF” printer. http://www.dopdf.com/ |

| Text Editor | Notepad++. This free text editor can do macros, column and block editing, multiple documents, and much, much more. http://sourceforge.net/projects/notepad-plus/ |
| Zip Utility | 7-zip. Windows XP introduced a built-in zip utility. That’s great, but it’s very, very slow. This free utility is very fast. http://www.7-zip.org/ |
| Adobe Flash Player | Adobe Flash. Necessary for playing movies/applications created for Flash (such as our Video Tutorials).http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ |
