I downloaded, installed, and ran it. Since I have a dual boot configuration with Win 98SE and Win XP Pro, Secunia PSI identified numerous programs that are installed under Win 98SE, even though the scan was run while booted to Win XP. It identified 17 End-of-life software; all but 3 of those are installed under Win 98SE. Since I rarely start my computer with Win 98SE nowadays, I'm not going to take any particular action on those 14 items.
The identification of End-of-life software seems like information of marginal value. Do they think we're supposed to go out and replace it with newer versions? I'm not going to do that.
The 3 things it listed under End-of-life software for Win XP were PowerDVD, WS_FTP Pro 7.x, and Macromedia Flash Player 8.x. I rarely play DVDs on my computer, so I don't want to get a newer verion of PowerDVD; the version I have came with my DVD-ROM drive. WS_FTP Pro, granted, is an old version of this FTP software, but, there again, I'm not inclined to buy a newer version when this version still serves my purposes. And, Macromedia Flash Player 8.x is one I really don't know how to remove; it does not show up in my Add or Remove Programs list.
In Secunia's Insecure Software list, there, again, part of them were apps installed under Win 98SE. Of 13, 8 were apps installed under Win XP. This included Word 2003, Excel 2003, and Publisher 2003, all part of Office 2003. I'll check to see whether any updates are available for Office, but I'm sure not going to uninstall it because of Secunia's Insecure Software list.
This list also includes, for Win XP, Macromedia Flash Player 6.x, Yahoo! Messenger 8.x, and Adobe Flash Player 9.x. As previously stated, Macromedia Flash Player does not appear in my Add or Remove Programs list. I see I have Adobe Flash Player 9,0,45,0 installed; the latest is 9,0,47,0, so, I'll update that. I'll also take a look at Yahoo! Messenger; I only use it for occasional PC-to-phone calls, no messaging.
I'm not too concerned about the Insecure Software list. I ran security tests from various sites back when this discussion was going on:
Is a software firewall necessary?, and those tests confirmed my system is secure. I'm using a router; that's the key.
