The Ultimate Packer for eXecutables is a portable, extensible, high-performance executable packer for five 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 and watcom/le As we mentioned above this is a BETA TEST release, DO NOT USE THIS VERSION EXCEPT FOR TESTING. Only compress backups of your executables.
