Georg: It would be nice to have something similar for plug-in updates — for example, Flash Player updates get little publicity even though sometimes they address important security vulnerabilities.

For Flash Player, the current version one has installed is indicated here:

…which contains a link to the Player Downoad Center.

Peter, that’s already possible: Right-click an update in the list and select “Mark as installed” to ignore this update until the next one comes out, or click ‘Ignore app.’ to never check this app for updates again at all.

I love the widget. Thanks. One quick idea. I find it would be great to make updates as to be ignored. I use some software that I know is out of date and that is fine. It would be great to be able to remove these apps from the list until another update occurs.

Thanks for the great widget.
