Top 10 most downloaded software for Windows
Download.com is an Internet download directory website, launched in 1996 as a part of CNET. The Software section of the site includes over 100,000 freeware, shareware, and try-first downloads. Downloads are often rated and reviewed by editors, and also contain a summary of the file from the software publisher, and one or more screenshots. Users may also write reviews and log their ratings on a scale of 1-5 stars.
I always find Download.com statistics very interesting. As of 2nd June, 2008, list the top 10 most downloaded software list, 4 are off Computer Security related softwares, AVG Anti-virus Free Edition, Ad-Ware, Avast Home Edition and Avira AntiVir Personal. It shows that people are very concern or suffering from security ordeals.
New member in Top 10 club is VersionTracker Pro, it detects out-of-date drivers and updates automatically. Personally I’ve not use this software yet, but I believe it’s a wonderful idea to have such an useful tool installed in computer.
Let’s see the whole statistics here:
