The NewInstaller by AirsoftSoftware is used to get an appropriate scale. The tool "KursUpdater" is from now on not needed anymore as Bonds now contains the shell option "JUSTUPDATE", and therefore makes the updater needless. more ... (ps) (Translation: wk)

Instant Messenger: CIM improved to current version 1.03_10
Cyborg's Instant Messenger in version 1.03_10 now supports PGP encryption so that a communication cannot be read by others without huge efforts. A recognition of the transmission by the system administrator is still ensured. No hidden message is sent, it thus can hardly be considered a hacker method. The preferences window can now be enlarged and the problems with some installations are fixed. The next improvement should be the file transfer, but due to my job I won't have the time to work on it in the next weeks except for some bugfixes.
