Our Tips Editor Vic Laurie says "One of the major nuisances in the life of a
PC user is the constant updating and patching that is required. Not only
Windows itself but also a host of programs are always in need of yet another
update. Anything that can make this chore less of a burden is welcome.
Fortunately, there are some free programs that help to keep a system up to
date. A number of these have been discussed at Gizmo's and I have been
trying out another and it is impressive. It is a small (353 KB), portable
application that requires no installation. There is no 64-bit version but it
ran fine on my 64-bit Windows 7 machine. It works in Windows XP, Vista, and
7. It will check your Windows updates as well as 56 common third party
applications and overall, it works a treat."
