Is there a program that tells you when updated software for ALL of your applications/drivers is available?

I like to keep my programs and drivers up to date, but manually checking is a pain and some programs have an upgrade notifier, but not all, and the ones that do take up resources. I like how Linux distros have something like this, but have nothing like this for Windows!
There actually IS something "magic" like that for just drivers…works for pretty uncommon drivers as well, but its free version limits you to two downloads a day.
It’s called DriverMax.

No. There is no magic application that sees all and knows all. Secunia software has a set of applications that check the most critical applications (other than Microsoft Office, come to think of it) for missing security updates, but it’s not exhaustive.
For that, see http://www.secunia.com
You’ll need the latest version of Java (not JavaScript) installed.
Hope that helps.
