Does one install this version over the top of his existing Winamp version?
Will Winamp auto update on its own to this new version?

  Subject: New Build of Winamp 5.666 now available


  Hi all,

  A new build of Winamp Winamp 5.666 build 3516 was released a couple of 
  days ago. This is a very minor update to Winamp but apparently many bugs 
  were fixed. So if you want the absolute latest version before 
  development of Winamp ends on 20 December it might be an idea to 
  download and install this new build. A direct link to the file is at:
