listening to Cnet podcast, The Real Deal, and heard about a site where if you are setting up a new computer or reformatting your computer or something there is a website where you can install all the little things that you had on your old computer really easily.  Its called NiNite.com

You can install a bunch of things like browsers, im programs, media programs a bunch at a time, and apparently it does so without installing all those annoying tool bars that each of the little programs try to get you to install.
