Notepad++ has way too many updates for a text editor. I purposely decline most of the nags to update for precisely this reason. It is too juicy of a target and was bound to get compromised.

Well, some people use it as a IDE, so there are more feature they need. But I am not sure if a less frequent update routine would be safer.
