Must have tools for the .Net developer

Here are four URLS that contains some must haves for anyone doing .Net development. If you have any more links to great tools you use, post them here so I can add them to my bookmarks. Thanks!



There you have it. I'm sure there are many tools on those lists that you have and many you don't. A couple of my favs from the list that I use all the time are:
WhosLocking
Have you ever tried to copy a DLL and had an "Access Denied" or "Shared Violation" error? Did you have to reboot everytime you needed to upgrade a DLL? If yes, this program is for you!

Reflector for .Net
Reflector is a class browser for .NET components. It supports assembly and namespace views, type and member search, XML documentation, call and callee graphs, IL, Visual Basic, Delphi and C# decompiler, dependency trees, base type and derived type hierarchies and resource viewers.

I don't think this one is on any of those lists, but I use it all the time:
NDoc Code Documentation Generator for .NET
NDoc generates class library documentation from .NET assemblies and the XML documentation files generated by the C# compiler (or with an add-on tool for VB.NET).

And related to NDoc for the VB people, again not on any of the above lists:
VBCommenter
Helps to create xml style comments in your VB code, the same way C# does.
