Other nice tools

I found another nice tool from the same people as did the Snippet compiler: SmartSniff. It sniffs the network for activity, very useful for analyzing program behavior. While on the subject, I also frequently use FileMon to locate problems with programs I use, it is a life-saver.

Other nice tools I use are:

• ScreenHunter, for screen-capture. Often handy when reporting some failure.
• Notepad2, a slightly improved version of Notepad. There are several Notepad replacements, I also have installed EditPadLite.
• Reflector gave me a slight shock, it showed me that the .NET dlls are very easily decompiled. We will be using an obfuscator to amend that.
  
• I have been using Baretail to tail my log4net-logs, but I am still looking for another tool I once used and was better :(
• FireFox needs mention since it is probably the tool I use the most (with the Adblock and All-in-one Gestures extensions).
  

This list is not complete, and I don't think I will keep it up-to-date, but we'll see.
