I'm going off the board with my review this week and looking at WavePad, a sound file editor that can be downloaded along with Switch, the audio file converter (and its also free).  The program displays the waveform in a very large format that makes it easy to spot where the sound drops out (good places to make edits). 
There are a number of effects features - my favorite is the normalizer, which brings the foreground (speaking) and background noises into balance.  I tried it on a recording of an interview I did some time ago, and it was much easier to make out the words.  You can also de-hiss, fade in and fade out, crossfade, and lots of other stuff that would make the sound better for presentation.
