    I'm using Poker Office and I don't think you'd be disapointed if you got it. It shows you outs and odds, but that's just a very small part of it. Things that are much more important is the HUD (overlay stats on the table) and the possibility to keep track of / evaluate your play.

    I will recommend Zeus Shield. It is newly released software few have heard about.now it is free in promotion.
    It is basically tracking software composed by a real-time assistant and a post-game analyzer. All odds are calculated of course. A feature i especially like is its player's action recorder. You can view on the table in the form of graph what actions your opponents have made from beginning to the end of a hand. I often pay special attention to a player's big action like raise, re-raise, check-raise to avoid putting more on the table, thus this program really fits me.
    You can go and have a look at cretrix.

    i don't use any poker software because that can really throw off a player. one of my friends used the software and it totally messed up her decisions because it shows a loose guy betting strong so she called down with top pair and the guy had a set. Feel is the best poker tool you can ever have and even though you might feel that you are getting bluffed a lot, it is way better to get bluffed then it is to give away a portion of your stack.

    Um, wouldn't your friend have classified his opponent as loose even if he didn't have a software keeping track of it? If so, would he have acted differently?

    If you're saying it's best to don't have a read at all I can't agree with you.

    I agree with you,porg.
    Poker software should be considered as a tool which can not replace your own judgement.A software just provides stats reference which you should combine with your own feel.That way your play becomes perfect.
