We\u2019re living in a world where altruistic developers make software for the sake of progressing technology, and we should learn to support these people who attempt to help us save some cash while using a program that can easily cater to our needs. Instead of shelling out cash or resorting to pirating, you can download free alternatives to every application you use, some of which are even open source. Let\u2019s look at the list!<\/p>\n<h3>***ImgBurn \u2013 For Burning CDs and DVDs<\/h3>\n<p>Instead of purchasing Nero \u2013 which uses a ton of resources \u2013 or Alcohol 120%, have a look at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imgburn.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">ImgBurn<\/a>, a piece of freeware that allows you to burn CDs and DVDs in a jiffy.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/imagecdn.maketecheasier.com\/2012\/06\/opensource-imgburn-interface.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Unlike its name suggests, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imgburn.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">ImgBurn<\/a> is a more comprehensive burning application that allows you to write any data onto a disc. You probably won\u2019t need data writing in Windows 7, but it\u2019s a decent feature if you\u2019re using an older computer at any point. Windows 7 comes with native CD burning capabilities, but no image burning. Windows 8 will add native image burning capabilities to this, rendering this program useless in the new operating system. For now, until you decide to upgrade, you can use ImgBurn for all your burning necessities. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imgburn.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Download it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>***Monitor Your Network With Softperfect Networx<\/h3>\n<p>While Microsoft currently offers network monitoring utilities, they\u2019re not as user-friendly as some home users would hope for. This is where <a href=\"http:\/\/www.softperfect.com\/products\/networx\/\" target=\"_blank\">Softperfect Networks<\/a> comes in.
