A great free astrology program aimed at Windows users:

http://www.astrolog.org

... by Walter Pullen. Some of this program is actually used by Astrodienst in their free astrology zone.

Runs on Windows and Mac. The Mac version is for non-intel chips only (G4, G5, etc) and is only run as a command line tool. It's not the most user friendly program and takes a little time to get used to, but is very accurate and has lots and lots of features.
