Update all software

[Ajmukon]

I have a lot of software installed on my computer; along with many drivers
I would like to update them all. However, each one takes two hours to find if there are any updates, when i am only to find out that no update exists.

Is there any program out the, that just check all your installed software to see if it is current or needs an update??(it also needs to be Open Source or Free)

I know that the exist: (this one costs money)

Sure would make my life easier
