I saw this in a PC World article. Very useful and free. This program will scan the software installed on your computer and tell you if there are updates for your software. You can have the program automatically update your software, download updates and let you install them, or notify you that there are updates available. You can update the software right from within the program. The updates may download a newer version of the software or take you to a website to download the software.
Check out this great free program that will help keep your software up-to-date at Secunia’s website.
