Software like Sony Soundforge and Audacity should be able to edit MP3

Audacity is free.

If you've Microsoft Outlook, it's very nice
Alternatively you can try Mozilla Sunbird too (though I haven't tried it before)

If you want something simple but beautiful, Rainlendar can do you the job.

Hope it will help.

Adobe Audition (was known as Cool Edit)
Sony SoundForge
Audacity
WavePad

I personally like Audacity because it's free and it satisfies my basic needs in audio editing. If cost is not a problem to you you might want to try Audition and SoundForge too.

A lot of video conversion related discussion ongoing there

For integrating service packs, updates, some settings, tweaks, customizing windows component - nlite meets your requirement. After customizing you can create a bootable ISO to be burned to your CD/DVD

But I don't think it can integrate those third party software like Mozilla Firefox

Either you look for standalone calendar software like Mozilla Sunbird or desktop calendar software like Rainlendar

Rainlendar is integrated to your desktop and it does have reminder functions intergrated into it.

If you're looking for more features, go ahead with Mozilla Sunbird or Microsoft Outlook.

Google Toolbar? Used it long time ago
I don't use any of the toolbars now

If you have broadband internet connection you can use online dictionaries and translators

For dictionary I always use http://www.m-w.com (Merriam Webster)
For translator, I use Babelfish - http://babelfish.altavista.com

If you don't mind to pay you can buy professional dictionary/translation software from Kingsoft

Are you using Windows XP?
I prefer the IME chinese input built into the system

Split what file? You want to split a video file into two or what? If yes, please refer to the pinned thread

If you want to split a normal file, you may use any of the compression utility like WinZip, WinRAR or 7zip

Those compression utilities split file slower because not only it splits the file it also does compress

You can try "File Splitter" for faster splitting experience

There are also tons of file splitting utilities can be found online, google for it

You can try Ulead PhotoImpact
Nice software for adding frame and effect etc...

PerfectDisk
Diskeeper
O&O Defrag

Personally I prefer Diskeeper though the other two get equally positive comments from others.

I am using Lavasoft AdAware since long time ago.
If you want to PREVENT your pc from getting infected you should really try to get a non-IE browser like Firefox.

Adobe ImageReady should be able to do that without problem

You can use crap cleaner too
Under Tools->Startup

How about this? Does this help?

Nero ftw...
I'm sure your burner does bundle with some burning software rite?

If you want freeware, you can try CDBurnerXP Pro

I have been using K-lite mega codec pack.

It depends on how do you define "best", most format support? More functionalities? For Klite mega codec pack, I can view almost any format (but usually I only view Xvid and RMVB) and it has not given me any kind of annoying error yet.

And what is the reason you don't want to use Print Screen? Lack of features or just because it is free?

If it's the former ones you can always try SnagIt.
