Is it possible to set an Alert when someone adds software to their machine? If so, how? Particularly I am looking if a user has upgraded their Java to a "not free" version.

You could run this report to see who has Java 8 past (inclusive) version 221
S.DISPLAY_VERSION
FROM MACHINE
LEFT JOIN MACHINE_SOFTWARE_JT MSJ
ON MSJ.MACHINE_ID = MACHINE.ID
LEFT JOIN SOFTWARE S
ON S.ID = MSJ.SOFTWARE_ID
WHERE S.DISPLAY_NAME like "%JAVA 8%"
AND ((S.DISPLAY_VERSION LIKE "8.0.3%"
OR S.DISPLAY_VERSION LIKE "8.0.2%")
AND S.DISPLAY_VERSION NOT LIKE "8.0.20%"
)

If you know the non free version of Java that you are looking to identify, and you can see it in your software inventory then you con block it, so even if it is installed it cannot be used.

Most of the problem with the KACE software inventory, though, is there are multitudes of "sub-versions" you also have to keep track of for blocking. It would be nice if we could create a blocked software "label" with a SQL query or something to match versions wholesale.
