Connecting to another operating system (Windows2000/XP only)
Starting from v1.11, WinUpdatesList provides 2 methods for viewing the Windows Updates of another operating system:

1. On local computer: If you have more than one instance of Windows 2000/XP operating system on the same computer, you can view the Windows updates list of the other operating system by using /another command-line parameter.
For example:
wul.exe /another e:\winnt

The second parameter specifies the Windows folder of the operating system.
Be aware that when you use this option, WinUpdatesList loads the Registry of the other operating system as a new hive under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, and than unloads it after you exit from WinUpdatesList.


2. On remote computer: If you have a remote computer with Windows 2000/XP operating system, your can view the Windows updates list of this computer by using /remote command-line parameter.
For example:
wul.exe /remote \\192.168.0.10
You must connect the remote computer with administrative rights in order that this option will work properly. It's also recommended to enable admin shares (C$, D$, and so on) on the remote computer.

It is a free all-in-one downloader which can download streaming media, social music or video from anywhere include youtube, myspace, imeem, pandora. It is famous for its super light, great speed and rapidshare supported. Also it support resume, proxy server, scheduler, metalink. Version 2.6.4 fixes the bug may cause Orbit Downloader unable to remember maximization of the main window.

Editor's review
"Download en masse"
Downloading videos, Flash games, and large batches of files is greatly simplified with this freeware download manager, but Firefox 2 users may have difficulty with integration.

Orbit's primary interface is bland, but the basic toolbar and info boxes guarantee everything is easy to find. Orbit shines with Internet Explorer integration. To get a media file, simply right-click a video or photo and choose Download from your context menu.

Grabbing a Flash game is even easier. Hover over a Flash file, and Orbit displays a button for a fast download.

Fast and small are key traits of this application. It uses a bare minimum of memory, and downloads are much faster than with a browser alone. Where Orbit shines is its one-button simplicity for downloading multiple files on a site. From there, you can easily filter for file type. Orbit's numerous configuration options make it one of the more flexible download managers available.

Although designed to integrate with the IE, Firefox, Opera and Maxthon, we had great difficulty getting Orbit to work seamlessly with Firefox. We finally gave up trying to get the Flash download feature to work. Nevertheless, anyone downloading large numbers of files will find this freeware indispensable.
