Nice tool there.
I made a (bootable) cd with the following on:
Dos startup with CDROM/ZIP/IDE cards/old CDROM/NTFS support
Ontrack Disk Manager (Fast format and partitioning for windows drives - without an overlay)
Parted - GNU Partition editor
Drivers for everything we have.
Winzip
StyleXP
GNU nano editor (similar to pico, but gnu)
MinGW compiler
Acrobat reader
Kernel sources
Speedfan
And I will soon add that resource hacker that jeordiewhite mentioned, if it checks out.

It appears that This Disk tries to set a lot of spyware cookies.
