the first version of this program was buggy as hell. patches that you had already installed were sometimes not detected or patches you needed weren't listed. totally destroyed the whole purpose of why this thing was developed.
hopefully they cleared up these bugs in this version.

Thanks Fisher,

I'l take a chance for this new version
