Good starchart or Atlas software?

Hi everyone...
Having no software on my computer and just having some basic starcharts on cd and a old Nortons star as a guide, I find myself constantly looking on the net for info, co-ordinates etc for IC and NGC objects that I can image with my setup.
I would love to get something that has all or plenty of the NGC, Messier, Cadwell and IC objects with details/size/brightness etc and locations and offcause charts of the surrounds. Even pics of the objects would be cool too!!
Anyone have any suggestions on whats suitiable and not too expensive.
Will be on a stand alone pc in my observatory (when finished) with no internet connection possible for sometime.
cheers and thanks for any recommendations.....
