M-Beat and iPodRip , by The Little App Factory.

Shapeshifter , a theme application, by Unsanity.

mPlayer, an all purpose video player application.

Adium, free AIM/ICQ/MSN chat client (great because it uses very few system resources).

Somebody got there first with adium,

BrickHouse , allows much finer control of your ipfw firewall than the Mac GUI under system preferences without having to resort to Terminal.app

Yeah, I make plugs for Adium because I moderate on the forum they rent space on, so I gotta help them out (like they need it anyway! they have one of the best osx chat clients out there!).

I highly reccomend System Optimizer X .
It's like disk clean-up for Mac it speeds up your system and does the little things on a type of schedule. It can automatically clean up your Safari Cache (even thought thats pretty darn easy ) And you can even tell it to prioritize your RAM!

Pocket Tanks, ported to the Mac

Temperature Monitor, a program that will tell you how hot everything in your computer is

TigerLaunch, application launcher

DragThing, a dock to tidy up your desktop

Pastor - Stores your passwords to important information in an encrypted file. The file itself is encrypted arround another password, so it still doesn't give out access to all your information. This requires MacOS X 10.3, but if you don't have it, I can look arround my computer for the installer, and upload an older version which only requres 10.1.

EDIT: I found the Pastor 1.6 installer on my computer. It was in my trash can, where anything can be found. I love my big HD, and never empty the trash (never lose anything that way )
