Well I've recently used File Hippo App Manager to keep my (Windows) programs up to date, but the latest version just went haywire. Just now I've just tried something called the Glary Software Updater. So far as I can see it doesn't add any malware in itself, or to downloads, and it's not adware either. It checks your software and sends you to a webpage with a list of available updates and links to downloads. The links work, though I think it renames the downloaded files by adding the version details as a prefix. And for me that's a good thing, because too many updates have something like SETUP.EXE as their filename, which tells you nothing at all about it later!
We'll see how it works out.
