    If you like to try out your anti-spyware and anti-virus program, this is a dandy test bed. It's permanently off my machine and never going back on.

    Yeah well TG I use mostly portable stuff. This serves no purpose other than to aggregate the public's installed softwares. Social networking to get updates? Really. What happened to the check for updates button. Too hard?
    May as well install android (or apple it makes no difference), run chrome and let google take over. No problem, as soon as they pay for my hardware and cable bill.
    Google or apple may send me a private message and I'll be happy to send them a hardware list incl my current cable bill.

    I like to use this application to check my system for updated versions from time to time; it's a lot faster than [[Smiling…] going through each application. Since Windows isn't going to have a service to do this for you [like Linux]— applications like this are completely necessary. I've used a few of these applications; I like this one the most thus far.

    Thank you,

    For reasons unknown to me recently the amount of false positives have dwindled to almost none - This is great.

    Nice program use the Zip file though, it works fine.

    File forum is a bit slow in posting new versions (actually they do not post much on weekends or holidays). On the SUMo website, a newer version is posted, 2.16.4.128.

    I have given the version downloaded from fileforum a 2. Actually, it is decent software, but the version that is downloaded on this page has several extra softwares (note the plural) added to it. I suggest you do not download from file forum directly, but go to the KCSoftware page directly and download the zip file version, which is SUMo alone with nothing added. That software rates a 5.

    Please note that the zip version does not have to be installed. All you have to do is click on the .exe file and it will run. Here is what you do ....

    1. Go to the KC Software Download Page
    2. Find the SUMo downloads and click on the Zip file for download
    3. Unzip the downloaded file and put it on your C: drive anywhere you want
    4. Open the SUMo directory and find the .exe file
    5. Right cliick on the .exe file and either pin it to your taskbar (or desktop) if in
    Vista or Win 7 or, for XP, create a shortcut and place that onto your desktop.

    To run SUMo, just click on the shortcut or the pinned Icon.

    Just download the PORTABLE version. No installation - No junkware!

    This thing contains spyware (I don't care about the light version,... betanews shouldn't post spyware here)
