    Lots. Almost as many as there are GIF viewers and converters.
    "ScreenX" works, as did "VScreen". Even "Snap" has a graphics clipping
    thing built in.

    You could also try one of the conversion tools that lets you say
    where you want the conversion to be done, so you can use your HD
    instead of RAM. Almost as efficient as virtual memory, eh? :)
