Ninite is a free online service that creates “mega-installers”, allowing you to simply check the box of each program you want to use and download an installer which will download the programs for you, and install them.
No clicking next, no accepting agreements, it just installs the software.
Ninite is mainly for Windows, but has a Linux version. The Linux version has a limited amount of software.
Ninite is a great website to remember for when you must reformat your computer. It will cut the installation time down an incredible amount. It is also a wonderful tool for computer technicians, and businesses (who should use the pro version).
The programs that I use are FireFox,
Pidgin, VLC, K-Lite Codecs, Audacity, Java, Flash, FireFox
Flash, Silverlight, Air, Inkscape, OpenOffice, FoxIt Reader, Microsoft Security Essencials, uTorrent, Google Earth, CCleaner, Defraggler, Recuva, Putty, and FileZille — but the list
goes on (and would
take far too much space to
write out every program).
