why don't you use the audio ap to indicate that there is an update with a sound such as a ding or some sound of choice. this way we don't get the dialog and we still know that there is an update available

In fact, I feel were heading toward the inevitable clash of the ideologies, so I'll just finish up with this reply, and then we'll take all comments that finish out the thread under advisement. We go by the feedback we receive through our support email, phone calls, training sessions, and even on this list. What we've found is that the majority of people have indicated that they want to be notified when updates are available, even when they're annoyed by them. Because the end result of not being updated is more of a negative issue than the annoyance of having to update. In fact, we've had numerous requests that we just do the updates without even telling you, but we're not quite sold on that idea. So when updates become available, we tell people. Just like when updates are available for my favorite text editor, or any of the various plugins I have installed for firefox, or when an update to my mail client is available, or Windows has updates. Just think: the time it takes to adjudicate on the totalitarian and oppressive tactic of forcing you to know that new software is available, you could just do an update. <grin> Thanks for the constructive feedback.
