Newest is best because of bugfixes,fixes of security problems,...
You can download the newest Vivaldi here: https://downloads.vivaldi.com/st ... .917.43-1_amd64.deb
The newest VirtualBox can be downloaded here: http://download.virtualbox.org/v ... an~wheezy_amd64.deb
Probably they will automatically add an repository for new updates but not all programs do that.
