The SUN company released an updated version of VirtualBox. Overall, the upgrade is aimed at correcting a number of various bugs.
VirtualBox - a program for creating virtual machines. By allocating resources it creates a separate virtual computer system from their own resources, and, most importantly, with its own operating system. For example, the computer operating system is Windows in the two accounts you can create a virtual system, under which use certain resources and install Linux. Or, rather, on computers running Linux install Windows. The program supports the installation of the operating system from a disk or file-image. Everything is very simple and will not cause serious difficulties even for novice users. It remains to add that the program is completely free and distributed on the basis of open source.
The main operating system VirtualBox supports Windows, Linux, Mac OS and Solaris. In the role of a virtual system could be virtually all popular operating systems.

Issued an update of antivirus free ClamWin. This version fixes bugs in the security of the program, significantly faster scanning, improved processing archives, slightly improved database updating.
ClamWin - absolutely free antivirus, distributed on the basis of open source. Regularly updated (automatically from the network) viral program directory contains more than 30,000 entries. Unfortunately, antivirus works only in the mode of the scanner, that is, automatic monitoring of the treatment is not available. Perhaps the potential of the is lower than the expensive of commercial projects, but while taking into account the relative youth of the program and that is free - is very dignified. Developers note the high rate of detection of harmful code (100% guarantee cannot ensure any anti-virus package). Download (19.6 MB - Open Source, GPL)
