Favorite tools

Here's a list of some of the tools that I find really useful.

Visual Studio 2005. Hopefully I'll get to have a go at VS2008 soon...
Firefox. I'm a big Microsoft fan, but even I have to admit - Firefox is much better than IE7.
KDiff3. Very handy for comparing versions of code. I'd also recommend replacing SourceSafe's WinDiff program with KDiff.
Paint.NET for all those images...
Unlocker, for those annoying times when the OS won't let you delete DLLs etc.

I'd love to know if there are any tools that you think are really useful, so please feel free to add a comment to this post. Thanks.
