TechTracker is a hybrid application; a client, installed on the computer in order to do a fast scan of installed software, and a site, where a page with the scan results and recommended updates is displayed. In order to get the client you have to sign up to CNET site, which is free.The update process is easy, just click on the "update" link near each program in the list and the program will be downloaded automatically. There is also an option to report wrong software version or name in case of any errors in CNET database.
CNET TechTracker is a useful tool, especially if you have a lot of programs installed on your computer.
I am SOOOOO disappointed with Cnet's Tech Tracker. It directed me to roll back some twenty programs to earlier versions. No thanks.
My trust for Cnet just dropped to 15% of what it was an hour ago.
