Product Description:

The Secunia PSI is an invaluable tool for you to use when assessing the security patch state of software installed on your system. It constantly monitors your system for insecure software installations, notifies you when an insecure application is installed, and even provides you with detailed instructions for updating the application when available.

It is NOT the purpose of the Secunia PSI to detect whether your system has already been compromised or if local changes, settings, or missing requirements could cause the Secunia PSI to report incorrect results. The Secunia PSI relies on the meta-data of executables and library files. The Secunia PSI does NOT conduct an integrity check of the individual files, rather, it checks whether a specific program is vulnerable according to the reported version numbers and not whether the files have been compromised or replaced by other users or programs.

I have used the online Secunia Software Inspector for a while and have recently also installed their Secunia Personal Software Inspector. It has many more features than the on-line scan and it spo much better than this site's own commercial product VersionTracker that is is almost embarrasing. And the Secunia Personal Software Inspector is free for use in a non-commercial situation.
It accuratley found that some components in my installation of Adobe Reader were old even though the About Version was the latest. It also found older versions of other software some of which it gave me a link for update and others it marked as End of Life software which are no longer being updated.
The best part of this is trhat it concentrates on the security aspect of the software that might make your PC susceptible to hacking or other instability.
Please give this product a try and support the makers on this excellent addition to the arsenal of Pc Users.
