Thanks for your reply and for considering a software mod.

Maybe this will help identify a color combo that will work better.

In June 2012 I made a request that you change your green and red color choices on the update status screen  Many color blind people cannot see the difference.  Please reconsider.

On 2 Win7 PC's (one x86 and other x64) with Java 7u5 installed, PatchmyPC did not detect the old version install.  Java 7u6 was on left pane in Black.  Same problem, 2 PC's.  Never had this issue previously.

Any chance we'll see a built in scheduler to auto run patchmypc?  Nice app but the added steps needed to manually create a Windows schedule task (that actually works) is too much for your average end user.

I find you must set patchmypc.exe to always run as an administrator and when running through Win task scheduler you cannot run it if the user is logged off (I assume UAC issue).

Currently Patchmypc shows patched programs green and unpatched red.  Many red/green colorblind folks, such as myself, have a difficult time seeing the difference between red/green the way you are using it.  I have to click the CHECK button again so it only shows the unpatched programs.

Reg/green colorblindness is the most common and usually in males.
