Thanks for the suggestion. I’m using it as a temporary measure, although not very impressed.

Listing dozens of programmes which are not installed on my PC is just an irritating time waster, but it only lists 16 that I do have, compared with 70 + with Secunia, when it used to work. Of the 6 programmes listed as OOD, two I updated manually, but the other 4 all said they were already up to date, despite Milouz quoting a higher version number than I have installed.

Is it possible that VLC, Last Pass, Auslogics and VirtualBox use different version numbers for 32 and 64 bit, and Milouz is looking for 64 bit versions that being the bittiness of the PC, whereas these apps may be 32 bit?

PS. I discovered Milouz downloading something called NVDA, presumably malware, and certainly not something I asked for. Managed to stop it, will uninstall Milouz in the morning and try File Hippo, although I believe that is a dodgy site.

Hi,

I am the developer of Milouz Market and I am sorry to read that you encounter some issues with it. I will respond to each point below:

-Our database contains the top 200 freeware, and we add new ones very regularly. We also take suggestion from users very seriously, so if you want to propose some, don’t hesitate.
-A new version has been release yesterday with the possibility to filter only the software installed on your computer.

About the version, it is possible that the 32bits one is not the same than the 64bits one. For example VLC is currently available in 2.1.3 in 32bits but 2.1.4 in 64bits. So if your computer is 64bits, Milouz Market will update software to the 64bits version. I will add to the TODO list an option to keep the 32bits version.

About NVDA, it is not a malware, it is an other software in our database for blind people. I think, what happens is that because the blinking of the display, you may click on the wrong line.

An other thing is : Milouz Market has been made at first for my own use (I am administrator system) to help employees to install software without any crapware, so if Milouz Market added some other malware, it won’t be very logical.

To finish, thank for your remarks, it will help me to improve the software

Regard,

Milouz
