Free application MakeInstantPlayer converts any video file into an EXE file complete with the player and codecs needed to play it. If you've ever shared a video with a non-tech-savvy friend just to get reports back that they couldn't get it to play, this application offers a simple solution: Just run your video through MakeInstantPlayer and send the resulting EXE instead (which in my test is about 5 MB bigger than the original). Your friend can simply run the EXE--which bundles the MPlayer media player and everything else they need to play back the file--and start watching. It may not be an application you'll use every day, but under the right circumstances, this clever app might be just what you need.
