Dear audience,
we are pleased to announce the next public beta release of our
new executable packer UPX. The Ultimate Packer for eXecutables
is a portable, extensible, high-performance executable packer for
several different executable formats. It achieves an excellent
compression ratio and offers *very* fast decompression.
UPX can pack (and unpack) the following executable formats:
dos/exe, dos/sys, dos/com, djgpp2/coff, watcom/le,
win32/pe, rtm32/pe, tmt/adam and atari/tos
New in version 0.60:
* added support for atari/tos, lots of bug fixes
for win32/pe, improved compression ratio and time
New in version 0.61:
* bug fixes
You can find UPX at:

As we mentioned above this is a BETA TEST release, so DO NOT USE THIS
VERSION EXCEPT FOR TESTING. Only compress backups of your executables.
Also, please report all problems or suggestions to the authors. Thanks.
Spread and enjoy,
Laszlo & Markus
