Snes9x

"Snes9x's cpu is written in assembly, and its graphics engine and SPC700 engine are well optimized. Both versions sport very nice GUIs. Snes9x supports graphics modes 0-7, 2 joysticks, transparencies, Super FX support and has real time save/loading. This is now one of the best SNES emulators around, and it stands only second to ZSNES in terms of compatibility.

This is the source code.

Kreed has made a version of Snes9X which uses OpenGL instead of Glide to do fullscreen bilinear filtering. It looks nice, but there's no GUI yet."

Zsnes

"This is the fastest SNES emulator in existence. It features all SNES screen modes as well as add/sub transparencies in 16 bit graphics mode (VESA2 support is required), mosaic effects, Super FX emulation (Star Fox, etc), DSP1 emulation (Mario Kart, etc), C4 emulation (MegaMan X2/3), real time saving, and a really great GUI which lets you configure the emulator to your heart's content. It has interpolated sound, and it will really blow you away! It also supports the snes mouse, and has a slew of other options as well including movie recording and modem to modem netplay! zsKnight, _Demo_, and Pharos have certainly outdone themselves. This is the SNES emulator of choice!

Check out the SourceForge site for a copy of the source code.

zbattle.net is a multi-player service for ZSNES. zbattle.net uses a centralized server, which means everybody using it will be able to join your game. zbattle.net currently only supports the Windows version of ZSNES."

I prefer zsnes but I haven't used snes9x for a while. They're both very capable and both very small downloads. It's really a matter of personal preference.
