Software Updates Week 9 2008

[Osiris]

What a busy week the last one has been. I was a little bit disappointed with the performance last week and had no good feeling about this one but the developers really surprised me with many updates to fantastic programs.
Several applications that I use on a daily basis have been updated, including such wonderful apps like Notepad++, Orbit Downloader and Locate.
