Re: Must-Have Softwares On Your Computer
The free edition of Download Accelerator... if I'm not wrong boosts up to 10 or 8 extra connections, whereas Internet Download Manager has up to 16.

Re: Must-Have Softwares On Your Computer
A few software that I like are:
Firefox - Web Browsing + Extentions
VMware - Testing my software designs in a safe environment, as well as testing malware. Also good for playing with linux distros.
Visual Studio - Software Design suite created by Microsoft.
CCleaner - For lack of a better cleaner, I use CCleaner.
Malware Bytes Antimalware - Security
Bullguard Internet Security - Security
Open Office - Free office suite compatible with MS Office.

Re: Must-Have Softwares On Your Computer
It can be a problem. They may conflict, changing reg keys a lot.
They tend to fight with eachother to take control of your downloads.
