Yup, last stable release as of Feb 2007. Nevertheless, LPI still tests LILO in its Level 1 and 2 exams. Despite objections, some of the people behind LPI claim that LILO is still in common use. Last I checked, LILO doesn't support encrypted password protection, making it a rather weak bootloader w/r/t security. But that's just me. I'm half wondering if/when to move to TrustedGRUB.
