Only programs I really use are Paint.NET, AVG, and Mozilla. The rest of them pretty much don’t mean anything to me.. But I don’t want to uninstall/erase something that’s important, or helps anything run (like Adobe or Java, that help run video crap). Also, I don’t use *any* of that Microsoft crap. Should I get rid of it all, or keep any of it just in case or what? So, just look at all the programs I have, and basically let me know which ones are important, and which one aren’t. http://computerhelpforum.org/forum/index.php?act=attach&type=post&id=1347 Thank you Please click that link to view a photo of all my programs!! I’m not asking if I should keep AVG, Paint.net, or Mozilla. I already know I’m keeping those!! haha I’m asking about all the other programs in the picture!! I’m actually already planning on reformatting and reinstalling today. But I wanted to know how many of those programs were just crap, because the majority of them came ON the computer, so if I reinstall Vista they will all still be there. So, I need to know which ones I can get rid of now, so that I can just go ahead and do it when I get Vista reinstalled.

Answer:
Bet that’s taken you some time to mass all those! It’s hard to brake down what YOU should keep but I’ll list what I’d remove and why.
