PCWorld Reviewers' Favorite Downloads: May 2010 In PCWorld Downloads, our reviewers sometimes find fascinating new files...and sometimes develop a fresh appreciation for the tried-and-true. This May, both scenarios played out. We ran across handy little utilities for system tray use and Office improvements. We reviewed tools for DVD-ripping, energy conservation, general tweaks, and more. And with all that work done, we felt fine about relaxing with a physics-based desktop toy and a classic game.
Affixa Basic Right-click a file and try to send it via e-mail, and Windows opens up whatever e-mail client is installed on your computer--even if you never use it. That is, unless you've installed and set up Affixa, which becomes Windows default mail program and uploads your file to Gmail, Yahoo, or Zimbra account.
TeamViewer TeamViewer 5 allows remote users to control both Windows and Mac computers behind a firewall by way of a small client application. It provides good all-around access to your remote PC. Remote printing isn't readily available, but VoIP, video, and conference call support are included.

Net Librarian 8.0Net Librarian is an Internet search utility which functions like a search engine, but brings back lists of Web sites which match key words you enter. This saves you the time of waiting to browse each of these Web sites to see whether your key words are there. (Search engines don't ensure that your key words are actually on the page) You can view these at your leisure, and copy and paste topics for your research report or student paper.
