Love this widget. Simple, handy, and very quick scanning.
It's always running on my Mac, as I'm almost always moving around, looking for wireless access, and the signal in my dorm room is incredibly weak. This lets me zero in on the right spot.

Heck, on its own, this is practically a wardriving tool. It displays whether or not a network is password-protected without having to connect, so you can easily find an open one.

i found this handy on PowerBook G4, but stopped using it on MacBook Pro because it showed obviously wrong values (highest signal shown as lower value than remote signals; iStumbler confirms the error is in Airport Radar)

AirPort Radar (as of v1.2) does not detect 802.11n networks whereas Air Traffic Control does.

Very easy to setup and use, AND it works without screwing up your software.
Used on Apple's Mail, and now with Entourage.

Very easy to use, and thanks to Rick Cransky for making it free.

There's also HTTrack, available as a Fink package:

I used it when I was on Windows, and it worked great, although sometimes a bit tricky to set up.

It's an alpha, and of course it crashes...

This is a great little tool, especially if you're an icon phreak!

I use it if I just want to resize a picture without opening Photoshop or GIMP. It saves a lot of time!

I just hope that this very useful tool soon will be updated to work on Intel Macs.

Here's wishing it could be a smidge faster when rotating/mirroring images.

But it's a lovely piece of software though!
