If the icon should not indicate upgrades, but rather a generic "urgent message" then a red triangle with an eclamation mark would be more or less universal. E.g. interactions could be "queued into" such a triangle icon, and then clicking would bring a menu with all the "pending" interactions. I doubt anybody would not react to such a icon in the proper way, that is, clicking on it to see what the system wants from us; but it would avoid launching possibly heavy softwares unrequested.
