I came across this program and have tried it out. It works well and was recommended by Gizmo Williams. https://psi.secunia.com/

Quote:
Test the Secunia PSI (BETA) Technology Preview, an upcoming addition to the Secunia Software Inspector series, based on the proven Secunia File Signatures Technology.

The Secunia PSI detects installed software and categorises your software as either Insecure, End-of-Life, or Up-To-Date. Effectively enabling you to focus your attention on software installations where more secure versions are available from the vendors.

Needless to say, we are very excited about this new free service for the Secunia security community. We appreciate all feedback, thoughts, and ideas that you wish to share with us.


If you decided to try it, I suggest it doesn't need to run in the background (Start > Run > type in msconfig > OK > Startup tab > uncheck Secunia PSI box >OK.)
