Due in no small part to the popularity of Windows 7, 64-bit desktop computing is finally starting to take off. Some developers were quick to get on board, but we're still a long way away from seeing the disappearance of the 32-bit compatibility layer (if it ever disappears).
Mozilla recently started making x64 builds of Firefox available to Windows users, and now the popular anti-malware tool SUPERAntiSpyware has announced that their latest version is available in a 64-bit flavor.
Both the 32- and 64-bit builds are packed inside a single installer, which I like. Sometimes my clicking finger gets a little jumpy and I wind up with an incompatible binary -- then have to head back and re-download. And I never notice until after I've closed the browser, of course.
Beyond mere native compatibility, and a FANTASTIC name, SUPERAntiSpyware can actually remove 64-bit infections -- something other tools might not be able to do.
