Old versions software
Updating a program is usually a good idea,but in some cases its not good. That is what we're here for! There have been several instances where a new release of a program is not always good.reason is several factors.

This really isn't a comment or suggestion about our web site. I'll move this to Tech Tips.

I use the site and it has been great in getting older programs.

Be nice if the site also had no install or Portable versions of some of the programs too.
Even more so now that lots of software is adding toolbars etc to the program but the Portable versions seem to be without the added junk.

And then there is http://www.oldapps.com/ which looks pretty much the same as OldVersion.com.

OldVersion says "2831 versions of 187 programs".

OldApps says "2832 Old Versions of 193 programs".

So there might be some minor differences.
