I'm not sure what you mean by manually checking. Here are my plugin settings:
I sorted the Installed plugin list by date and selected all the ones since Oct and clicked the refresh icon with the Task Viewer open. It showed "Updating Plugin Info" but not downloading anything and nothing in the plugins folder was changed. I went to the Guide and did Check for Updates (which I thought just checked for updates to the app and not plugins, but maybe not) and nothing changed. Howard
