Have you ever had problems with certain important old computer programs and wish you knew where to get updates aside from Windows Update? Wanted freeware programs rather than pay another company for a program to do the same thing? Well FileHippo.com is for you.They have an UPDATE CHECKER program you install on your computer and it automatically scans your computer for programs they offer updates for so you can stay up-to-date and not run into conflicts when doing your day to day computer/internet use. I can attest to this program as being AD & Malware free. You will not get pop-ups or any crazyness when installing this program.
I've been using FileHippo for a few months now and they are a good site to get updates to programs you already have installed on your computer. They also offer trial versions of programs you have to pay for if you want to use past the trial period. FileHippo offers freeware programs which are programs that do the same thing as the programs you pay to use; they will be simple lighter versions of programs from their "pay for" counterparts that do the same exact thing.
You can also browse the categories of endless programs they have for whatever your needs may be.
File Hippo even offers BETA versions of programs just incase you want to get ahead of yourself and want to use a program version ahead of the stable version that is out. If you don't know a BETA version of a program is an unofficial version of a program which is put out by the company who created the program to help with working out the bugs before they make it an "official updated release". For example i'm using Yahoo IM version 9 while the current version out now is version 8.

Thanx for the info. And thanks for the Boondocks episodes too!
I'm going to check out filehippo. Thanks for the heads up. You should stop by download.com too.
Ya welcome, but i dont use download.com unless i have too cuz they "recommend" too many crappy programs that seem like the company paid them to recommend.
