Have you guys tried this? http://www.downloadsquad.com/2007/04/04/file-hippo-releases-update-checker/
This brings up the question, If you are having no problems, is it wise to blindly install any update you hunt and find or it just comes your way? Take the long running Microsoft video drivers update fiasco, for example. More often than not, if you download the video update offered by Microsoft and install it, when you reboot your video colors are washed out and you have to uninstall the update.
I realize the standard first answer from technical support on most any problem, "Download and install the latest updates." But again, is this safe when you are having no problems?
