Software Update: Tweak-7 1.0 Build 555 Beta 3

TotalIdea Software, known from Tweak-XP Pro and TweakVI, among others, is developing a similar program for Windows 7 under the name Tweak-7. This tweak program can handle both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows 7 , from release candidate build 7100 and above. After installation, the program can only be used for two weeks. That should not be a problem, because updates are released almost daily.
