Abstract

See full text

A system for automatically updating versions of software programs in client computers includes: client computers (1), each including software programs (10) and a version update inquiry module (11); an application server (2) including a version number obtaining module (200), a comparing module (201), a connecting module (202), and an updating module (203); a database (3) for storing version numbers of newest versions of the software programs; and an FTP server (4) for storing the newest versions of the software programs. Each time a software program is operated by a user in a client computer, the version update inquiry module sends an inquiry to the application server. The application server responds by determining whether the current version of the software program is the newest, and updating the software program to the newest version obtained from the FTP server if the current version of the software program is not the newest.
