One of my favorites is PDFCreator which allows a Windows (95/98/NT/2000/XP) user to print to a PDF file rather than a printer.

Great for saving anything that prints for later. Also good if you want to email or otherwise send a piece of information to someone. You can download this invaluable tool at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdfcreator/

Just thought I had better say that this tool can be dangerous so make sure that you have backups of your important files and that you fully understand how the tool works. Especially if you are using it on your main system volume. A good rule is to always partition with the highest level of caution.
