“Free Program” Update Notifier
Use AppSnap.
From AppSnap’s web site:
It automatically figures out the latest version, downloads the installer and then installs the software in one seamless step.
An interesting point the web site brings up is Windows does not have a package manager offered by most Linux distributions to automatically notify you of updates, so I imagine this is the application’s overall goal.
AppSnap, at the time of this writing covers 361 free programs: from 7-Zip to ZuluPad (check out the Applications link).
