Briefcase: You've already got this one. It comes with Windows XP and Vista. See for more information.

: This free and open source program has some annoying quirks (I never got the filtering to work properly) but it's simple to use, it works, and the price is right.

Options include shutting down the PC after finishing, filtering on date and/or file size, e-mail notifications, and FTP support. That later option allows you to upload your files to the Internet and download them later.
