#3. "RE: software updater" In response to Ttech (Reply # 1) Sat Dec-02-17 05:42 PM by Paul D
Website says it does automatically update programs it finds. Personally I'd prefer one that doesn't. I'm also not all that keen on being obliged to give them my email adress as a pre-requisite for downloading.
Edit:- Ttech, that's Secunia. Now I remember it. I believe it focuses on security and won't find "new feature" updates that aren't security related.
Having said all that, it looks useful, but not a complete answer by any means.
