Mr Sudeep!

I have installed Sygate Personal fire wall. Thinking that others are better i tried nearly 5 best firewalls recommended on the web. After all the trials i fell back to Sygate. It\\\’s working very well for me.

mEye의 생각…

이런 자동 업데이트는 자유 소프트웨어 OS만 가능하다고 생각했는데… 하긴, 조금 더 생각해보면 소프트웨어 업데이트야 이미 개별로 하고있기도 하니, 아주 불가능한 건 아니군….

InstallPad parses the url string of , tries to infer what the program’s version is from the url, and then increments the version (both major and minor numbers), until the server returns file not found.

InstallPad would try 1.2.0, 1.3.0, and then 1.3.1 (which is the latest version). This can only work with URLs that have some version information in them; InstallPad does not maintain a central online database, nor is it omniscient, and cannot therefore find the latest version of a program any other way.

From: http://installpad.com/applists.php

So if the filename just setup.exe or ProgramNameSetup.exe (quite many applications use this naming method), this program can’t determine whether it’s newer or not?
