Today I started receiving the little Update indicator on my iPad 2 and it's for an APP I never down loaded. It's for an APP called STICHER Radio.

How do I get rid of it?

Thanks

Tom

Don't know if this will work but may be worth trying.
1) Download the APP on your Mac and then sync it to your iPad
2) Delete it from your iPad
3) Delete it from iTunes on your Mac
4) Sync again

Also, check your account purchase history and make sure it wasn't purchased (I know you said you didn't purchase it). If it's there, it is POSSIBLE that your account has been compromised.

Update, I re-installed the App and the Update and waited two days. Last evening I then deleted the App and so far the Update hasn't re-appeared. Fingers crossed.

Thanks guys
