[Need] Make desktop tutorials

You guys know what software is best for making desktop tutorials? I tried a few, but I really hate the laggy mouse effect.

Used this quite a bit:

»www.adobe.com/products/captivate/

It is a bit pricy for personal use, but it is easy to use and I had great success with 2.0. Never used 3.0 so not sure if it is as good.

I tried this in the past before, but it was a bit confusing. I'll give it another go.

tried this too. It has laggy mouse, and tends to crash on vista if the video becomes too long.

seems like Fraps works just as good in desktop as it does in games.

Last I checked, fraps doesn't do desktop capturing unless you have a specific application that uses an overlay system (video playback with h/w accel., directx/opengl games.).

I swear, some people should have pace-makers installed to free up the resources. Breathing and heart beat taxes their whole system, all of their brain cells wasted on life support.-two bit brains, and the second bit is wasted on parity! ~head_spaz

Will Windows Media Encoder do what you are wanting to do? I think it's still free. I haven't tried it since switching from XP to Vista, so you might experience problems using it with Vista, but I believe there is a hotfix for those who do happen to run into a problem.
