Work PC
 

What applications do you have running when you are at work/collage/school? I have my e-mail running and what ever document working if I am connected to the curriculum server and if I am logged into the admin one I have my e-mail, the admin database and various documents up.

Does your company permit things like MSN and other chat programs?

I am just curious to see what people run on their pc's during the work day.

We can use MSN
I have IE6, pcAnywhere, outlook, remedy and excel currently open on my dual screens.
Soon I shall have nothing running as I will be on my way home :D (back in friday though for 5 nights! :cry: )

We can't have MSN, but I get around that with the web based version.

Other then that, MS Office, Lotus Notes, iTunes, Rational Tool Set, and other bespoke apps.

At Uni we have MSN built in to Internet explorer.
We also have e-mail open, Office, Anti Virus, this print money calculator thing for how much money we spend on printing, and thats it.

Cant be bothered to do my audio/video work at Uni so I go home and do it there instead now I have a nice new PC.

Re: Work PC
 

Outlook, Access, Excel, 4 or 5 different Ntl applications and 3 or 4 Internet explorer windows to access other systems.

That's normally sitting in my toolbar at all times. A couple of other things will be open depending on what I'm doing.

Sadly no personal software allowed. No firefox or Opera here :(

Re: Work PC
 

We run thin clients at work, so we are restricted to what is on the servers at the Head Office.

So its basically Outlook 98 and Office 97 applications.

Power DVD
UT 2004 Tournament

On a work computer :shocked: Unless your a games tester that's a pretty lax company you work for. :erm:

Mine has Win XP Pro, Office 2003 Pro (Word, Excel, Access, Outlook), Frontpage 2000, IE6, Outlook Express, Adobe reader, Winzip, Boinc Stuff. Panda Antivirus, Adaware, PDF Creator.

And I frequently use remote Desktop Connection to get at the varioous applications running on the server.

Then there's a few personal things, its a laptop so I use it at home too, including Scuba dive planning software, Games like SimCity

No MSN (it's horrible and never seemed to need it, anyway the traffic generated over the net if many were using it seems to slow down our network).

Re: Work PC
 

You could say it's pretty lax yup ;)

Re: Work PC
 

We are not technically allowed MSN but they don't block it. Laptop users here have a lot more freedom to install stuff on their own PCs than desktop users do. ;) I use MS Office stuff, IE a lot as our corporate web and intranet both use browser-based CMS, useful little freeware apps like Windowsizer and Puretext, Novell Groupwise for corporate email and diary, MS Publisher, Adobe Photoshop and Acrobat when I need to be creative.

Re: Work PC
 

Pretty much the same as others have posted.... although I've also got Call of Duty for lunchtime fun :D

And Filezilla and/or FlashFXP (depending upon my mood) for transferring customers' debug logs for me to pore over.

Oh, and a handy telnet client called KevTerm cause I'm too lazy to walk to our server room.
