   Appupdater has a GUI now, it can be used by anyone easily.
   
   Well worth it for parents or relatives that don't live nearby!

   This has a long way to go... as already noted, it should partner up with BetaNews... as well as other such sites: FreewareUpdates, SourceForge, MajorGeeks, Softpedia, etc.

   I like this. Keep in mind it's mostly a text interface or a not so pretty graphical one, but it works well for me. I don't have time to keep all my random apps installed, and this seems to cover most of what I use.
   
   Betanews should have a repository and use this program.

   It did not detect spybot at all, and froze while updating AutoIt. (Tried to run the autoit installer at BELOW NORMAL Priority!)
   
   Also, the interface is quite ugly and disappointing.

   The Windows platform is in desperate need of a good, working application such as this. This one seems to have more promise than any of the others I've tried, as it works more as I think this sort of app should work. However, nothing I did on a run-of-the-mill XP machine could get it working. It was never able to populate my list of installed applications, and only once did I manage to get it to retrieve a list of available apps from the repository. When I got that far, it wouldn't install anything new or do anything else.
   
   I'll give this a 2 -- a bare 1 point for not working at all, but one bonus point for giving a glimpse of what COULD be if this worked. Get it working, and I'll re-rate it.
