Just go to the major Geeks site listed in the forward and you'll get the latest build of Winamp. It was
www.winamp.comitself that had not properly been updated at the time. - Or just wait a day or two till the site is updated.
Install your winamp update as you usually do. Yes, you can install on top of your existing version. This will preserve your settings. However, some people recommend a clean install and if you encouter any problems, this is what you ought to do.
Btw, if you don't have a pro license for winamp, you can still use the pro installer. It will install and give you all the features of the free version. The features of the pro version will simply not be available.

Ok. So what about the basic version of Winamp? How would you copy the link so it will download correctly? And, will this install over the previous version with no issues?----- Original Message ----- From: "Ron Canazzi" <aa2vm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <winamp4theblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, January 14, 2010 1:26 AM Subject: Re: Winamp Version 5.572 is now AvailableHi List, This gets even weirder. I copied the available link from Winamp's site and substituted the #2 for the #1 and used the browser to try downloading it and what do you know? it downloaded. There is a 5.572, but for some reason, the Winamp page itself has not yet been updated. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ron Canazzi" <aa2vm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <winamp4theblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, January 14, 2010 1:18 AM Subject: Re: Winamp Version 5.572 is now Available Hi Dr, It's strange that when I visit the Winamp page that the latest full version release is still 5.571. Is this file from Major Geeks a beta? ----- Original Message ----- From: "DJ DOCTOR P" <djdoctorp@xxxxxxx> To: <winamp4theblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, January 13, 2010 3:58 PM Subject: Fw: Winamp Version 5.572 is now Available Hello all list members, We're just getting use to Winamp version 5.571. But now, here is a new release of Winamp 5.572? LOL It seems like every few months, they come out with a new version of Winamp before we finish getting the hang of the one we're using. But anyway, here it is, I just got this from: www.pc-audio.org and now, I am passing it on to all of you. Take care now.
