Audacity - Audio recorder and editor Thanks to notpatelman this program will let you export to wav or mp3 if you have an encoder (this program let me record the customized instasong!)

Dude, do you know any good utlities that would allow me to capture dancing anime girls? I really want one for my desktop. Also, I fapped to the Harry Potter picture from yesterdays post about 10 times last night. You guys rock!

Microsoft Windows AntiSpyware is free for download, providing you have a "genuine" copy of Windows. I've installed it on my work and home laptops and found it detected and removed many things (esp. activex controls) that Spybot and Adaware missed. -- Zebulun (netizennews.com)

DBPoweramp 11, the one you have posted is no longer freeware, it is merely a free trial. DBpoweramp is truly free and is very high quality. Here is the link:http://www.dbpoweramp.com/bin/dMC-r10.exe
