I think Ben's keyboard is playing up....if you're Googling, you will need to search for SCUP.<br />
<br />
And yes, for 3rd party, non MS apps you need a 3rd party add-on. SCPU is a no extra cost option, PatchmyPC is a cheap extension that does a very similar thing but there's also Shavlik Protect and Solarwinds Patch Manager both at extra costs.<br />
