Google Pack - Power Inserting Lock - DNC Air Cylinder
Available applications
Users can choose which of the following software applications to install. If the application is already installed, Google Updater checks to see if the user has the latest version and upgrades it, if necessary.
The software applications available vary based on which language and locale is selected, and operating system. The U.S. Windows XP version of Google Pack offers all of the current applications listed below.
Google-branded
Google Desktop
Picasa, a photograph organizer and editor
Google Toolbar for Internet Explorer
Google Photos Screensaver, which displays pictures from the user's computers
Google Earth, an electronic globe
Google Talk, an instant messaging and Voice over IP (VoIP) application
Google Video Player, a multi-media player, now withdrawn
Google Chrome, a free web browser developed by Google
Third-party
Mozilla Firefox with Google Toolbar
Spyware Doctor Starter Edition
Adobe Reader, a document viewer
RealPlayer, a multi-media player
Skype, a VoIP application
On March 27, 2007, Google added two new applications to the Google Pack: Spyware Doctor Starter Edition and Norton Security Scan. These programs are free and do not require subscription, unlike Norton AntiVirus. However, Norton Security Scan does not offer continuous protection against viruses. Norton Security Scan scans the computer and identifies if there are existing viruses, worms, spyware, unwanted adware or Trojans residing on it. The program's functionality is similar to Microsoft's Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool.
Google says that they have no monetary agreement with the makers of the above software, and that they offer the applications for the ease of Google's customers, and do not receive payment, although Miguel Helft in his New York Times blog reported that an unidentified source stated that Google may pay Sun for each copy of StarOffice. As of November 2008[update], StarOffice is no longer part of Google Pack.
Google has included the VoIP application Skype in the pack, even though it is a competitor of Google's own Google Talk.
Some industry observers claimed that the release was little more than a collection of software "that Google's wrapped a rubber band around".

Ad-Aware
GalleryPlayer
Norton Antivirus Special Edition 2005, which included a 6-month subscription
Norton Security Scan

Google Updater
Google Pack comes with Google Updater as a package management system to assist in downloading, installing, removing and automatically updating the Pack's applications. Updater can be uninstalled without removing the applications.
Google Updater may not reflect the most recent versions of all Google Pack programs. For example, as of January 2008[update], StarOffice 8 Update 9 was not provided through Google Updater, which displays no indication that previous versions are out of date. Sun Microsystems released Update 9, which includes six security related fixes, on December 10, 2007.
