I use
Chrome exclusively. I haven't used
Explorer in about 6-7 years. Hated it.
FireFox does have some cool features, but it became such a CPU Hog that I bailed on it a few months ago.
CCleaner is great for cleaning up my PC, which I do at least once a week. More if I need it. The fact that it's free is even better.
I use
Malwarebytes and I've never had any issues. It's always been pretty good at getting all that s h i t taken care of for me.
GIMP is a fantastic alternative to Photoshop and it's free. But I work in Graphic Arts and Design and use
Photoshop as my go to program since I need a lot of the specialty tools that
PS offers that
GIMP does not. But for those that are on a budget, you absolutely can't go wrong with
GIMP.
Thanks
Xboi for all the suggestions. Very informative.
