FileHippo has a tool that sits in the tray and checks for updates to 
installed software. Google has something similar, but just for their own 
apps. Normally I would automatically categorize such a program as 
spyware, but it is surprisingly unintrusive. It can be configured to 
check automatically or manually only when you want it to, and the 
results are loaded in a web page so you can compare your own version 
number with the version number of the update. It also accurately detects 
tons of software (including 7zip), and lists beta versions in a separate 
list.

In Vista it can be annoying because it triggers UAC when it does its 
checking.
