photoshop or photomatix
if you shoot in raw, you can use photomatix to make an pseudo HDR from a single picture like so

ok because i was trying to import a jpeg and it doesnt in photomatix... so the only way to use it is in raw format. and that pic above was a single pic? i heard you need at least three.. I tried something last night... did the three shot thing but when i merged them all together they looked like ass and nothing lined up... I think my tripod sucks and it shakes too much...
