    My most used programs, other than MSN, are probably AOL (to connect to the internet, I don't use it's explorer), Firefox and Windows Media Player. I'm on a DSL connection, that's all I'm aware of anyway.

    I have a 56k connection. My dad's looking at the possibility of getting broadband again. Apparently, there's Sattelite Broadband in my area. Knowing our luck, it'll probably disappear into the distance...for the second time...lol

    Anyway, the program I use the most (excluding any games) is probably IE or WinMX. When I'm not gaming, I surf the 'net or download stuff.

    system idle process hardly counts as a program you use

    Let's see... I use Firefox, Thunderbird, Notepad, SmartFTP, Photoshop, Winamp, Motherboard Monitor, xChat, GAIM. I think that's it....

    Lets see, most commonly used non-game/instant messenger.. probably notepad (word = UGHH) and Internet Explorer (meh, it works )
    One more round; one more low.

    Other than Mozilla Firefox, I use a piece of programming software I got from a textbook. It's very helpful for programming projects, due to its comparatively descriptive compiler.

    I'm on a network, and I think it's DSL... not sure though. *shrugs*
