Purely out of curiosity, what kind of freeware is out there for the Mac, and which ones do you guys like to use?

Net Monitor was great as freeware, but the **** chomper decided he would start charging. http://homepage.mac.com/rominar/net.html

Ditto on that. When I got my Powerbook (since returned) one of the first things I noticed was that you needed a piece of software to sort Safari bookmarks. This software was free until the release of Tiger, then they decided to start charging. So I removed Safari from my dock and got a real browser...TMA said:No don't get me wrong, I have absolutely no problem with people charging for software that they've spent ages creating in their own free time.
What I have a problem with is something that's free for years and then suddenly you're asked to pay. You can't even use the older free versions of this software either.
