All the programs above are shit I would totally recommend Windows movie maker it has some awesome effects and titles one of my personal favs is the title with the spinning newspaper, it's used in all the best edits
it's still there it's just that the link from the quote doesn't work since the 7 integrated to the link. Use the link in the original post or just take off the 7 and its gonna work
if you actually want something that is free and not just privated, virtual dub is a legit program... Kinda advanced for someone who doesnt really know what they are doing tho
