[url=][size=+3]Abstract[/url]UPX is a free, portable, extendable, high-performance executable packer for several different executable formats. It achieves an excellent compression ratio and offers very fast decompression. Your executables suffer no memory overhead or other drawbacks for most of the formats supported, because of in-place decompression.
UPX is copyrighted software distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License, with special exceptions granting the free usage for commercial programs as stated in the UPX License Agreement.
UPX uses the NRV compression library for compression services. A compatible but somewhat less efficient OpenSource implementation is available through the UCL compression library.
UPX aims to be Commercial Quality Freeware.

(you also need UCL)[/td][/tr][/table]All versions are functionally equivalent, i.e. each version can handle all executable formats.
Just in case, here is an archive of old versions.
