I recently installed f.lux, and it is awesome. Flux is a color temperature adjuster that takes effect at sunset, lowering the gamma to produce easier-on-the-eyes light. Allegedly, it helps you sleep better after using the computer. It does seem to do that; my eyes don't hurt as much using my PC after dark.
Something that is a little jarring is the 20-second transition period at sunset - I always think "woah, yep, sunset just officially happened." Thankfully, there's a setting to produce a much nicer and more gradual hour-long fade from daylight (6500K) to night (for me, 2700K). The program is super simple and easy to install and configure. Highly recommended.
