Download Google Pack 1.1.489.27609 beta

Google has updated its Google Pack to version 1.1.489.27609 beta. The Google Pack consists of a collection of programs that, according to Google, are essential for a pleasant stay on the computer and the Internet. Naturally, the collection consists of a large number of programs from Google itself, such as Google Earth, the Google Desktop, Picassa and Google Talk, but so-called third-party programs can also be downloaded. For example, Mozilla Firefox (of course with the Google Toolbar baked in), a version of Norton AntiVirus 2005 including a six-month subscription, Ad-Aware SE Personal, Adobe Reader version 7, RealPlayer and GalleryPlayer HD Images.

The user can decide for himself which of the programs will be placed in the download and if one of the programs is already installed, it will only be updated if it is a new version. There is no changelog on the Google website, but a quick glance shows that the Google Video Player has been added and that Trillian is no longer an option. Furthermore, we can only assume that newer versions of the individual programs are present. We conclude with a complete overview of all programs in the Google Pack:
