I'm playing with OpenOffice 2.3 (Windows version) at the moment. The word processor (Writer) is pretty good.

I get frustrated sometimes with interoperability with Microsoft Word, but on it's own, its very impressive - and if you've used Word before, its very similar.

Paint.NET runs on the .NET framework very much like PhotoShop but much easier to use than GiMP

Has hundreds of free plug-ins and a tutorial form with loads of help

*NOTE* requires .NET 1.1 or higher

I just stumbled onto a article on Digg of a Photoshop alternative call Pixel. It has Multi-platform support: Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and more. It's not free but I'm still posting it...

Has anybody mentioned FileZilla - a free FTP program? This is a really useful FTP program - almost as good as Ipswitch FTPPro.
