So if there's a program on the following list you fancy then you know what to do !

    The game is afoot ! Good luck everybody. Please pay attention to the last paragraph, it really won't work, honest.

    Okay folks....it's time for our sixth anniversary celebration.
    To help us commemorate the event, a number of software vendors have generously provided us with licenses.
    As we've done in previous years, we're going to have a contest to distribute them.
    How does the contest work?
    All you have to do is find hidden icons.
    They're hidden in calendar posts, forum posts or possibly blog posts.
    It's just like those Highlights magazines in the doctor's office when you were young, except some kid didn't circle all the hidden animals before you got a chance to find them.
    In any event, I could go into all the rules and regulations, but you don't want to read them and I don't want to type them.
    Here is what you should do....click and click often. We have XX icons hidden around the web site.
    When you find a winning entry, there will be a link and instructions for you to collect your prize.
    Now go out, have fun and win!

    We would like to thank the following software authors and vendors for participating to this event (A-Z order)
    • BillPStudios: WinPatrol Plus 2010 and Task Catcher (6 license each).
    • Diskeeper Corp.: Diskeeper 2010 and Undelete 2009 (6 license each). Note: Diskeeper 2010 is scheduled to be released in few days!
    • Emsi Software: a-squared Anti-Malware and Mamutu (500 license each)
    • Kaspersky Lab: Kaspersky Anti-virus 2010 and Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 (3 license each)
    • Malwarebytes.org: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (6 license)
    • Mischel Internet Security: TrojanHunter (5 license)
    • Prevx: PrevX 3.0 (5 license) - Special thanks to Triple Helix for arranging this with PrevX!
    • Soft4Ever: Look'n'Stop Personal Firewall (5 license) - Special thanks to Triple Helix for arranging this with Soft4Ever!
    • Sunbelt Software: VIPRE Antivirus + Antispyware (6 license)
    • SuperAdBlocker.com: Super Ad Blocker (10 license)
    • SuperAntispyware.com: SUPERAntiSpyware Professional (10 license)
    • Tall Emu: Online Armor Premium and Online Armor++ (6 license each)

    Of course, the contest rules:
    Quite simple rules!
    1. You have 30 days to claim your prize. Unclaimed prizes is forfeited.
    2. Send PM to one Committee member only to avoid duplicate work by them.
    3. Provide the necessary details when asked (email address, full name) to allow the software vendor to generate and send the license code.
    4. Look for software that you want to get as prize. No return. No exchange. We do not receive any cash on this so don't ask for cash. Do not blame us or the software vendor, if any software has caused issue on your computer or system. You decide which one you want to claim as prize (if the license is still available so hurry up!)
    5. You can win one (1) prize only for this contest.
    6. All services are subject to Terms of Service, please read our ToS here.

    The Calendar of Updates' 6th Year Anniversary Software License Committee members are: ourstanley, roddy32 and Triple Helix. Don't bribe them!
