Update Information: March 18, 2009
It looks like there was a "silent update" of Evgeniy Korniloff's Woodpecker version 2_x. The exe is dated March 18, and a binary compare shows that it's different than what was available before. You have to watch his site like a hawk, it's chock full of silent updates and disappearing/reappearing versions. That is, if you're a mad collector like me.

Hi Tony,
Wow! The last Woodpecker version I have listed is 2.03. I noticed that his versions change almost daily and he has recently switched to a ".x" form. It seems to me that all ".x" versions will be silently updated. If you check his "last modified" date on the website, you will see March 8, 2009. If I have to download all his software every day and check for changes, then that's too much work. If he doesn't change his website version numbers, then I will miss his changes. Thanks for the information. I will add it to my March 19 Update post.
Best regards,
Ron
