With the fast pace of computer and software development these days, it can be close to impossible to keep up with the latest versions of whatever applications you might be using. I use quite a few apps and most of them get behind in the updates because I don’t want to spend lots of time monitoring when a new version comes out. Some of them include built in update checking, and these are typically the only ones that stay up-to-date on my computer.
FileHippo has released a great looking Update Checker. I just ran it and within 9 seconds it came back with a report of 11 applications with outstanding updates, and links to each of the update downloads. One of them was Firefox which I keep pretty on top of with updates, but a new update come out in the last day or two, and FileHippo Update Checker was on to it.
