It is Wednesday again which means it is time for the weekly software updates article. I try to list all applications that have been updated in the last seven days that have been mentioned at Ghacks previously. This is usually a list of 10-20 applications with links to the homepage of the developer so that everyone may download the new version immediately.
The description is short, if you would like a longer one or further information let me know and I will gladly provide them. If you have any other suggestions or tips on how to improve this list let me know as well.
Before I forget: Everything that is listed here is freely available. No commercial software makes it into this list.
Azureus 3.0.3.5 Beta 7 - Azureus is a Java Bittorrent client that I have used in the past. I did make the switch to uTorrent though.
CCleaner 2.02.527 - Scans your system for and removes junk, temporary files and privacy related content such as history files if selected by the user.
