Yes, I'm aware that Legacy does automatically update, that would be REALLY bad
in my opinion.
You said "Legacy has a setting to only check the internet if you click a link.
See
under the Options button on the Home Tab - then choose Options -
Internet Options."
I've never even consider that Legacy could connect without me choosing
[Internet -- Create Web Pages or---Legacy Homepage ----or Search internet].
Under my Legacy Homepage or Search Internet Tab, I have "Internet", but I
don't have "Internet Options" if I rt click there, I have "Show Quick Access
Toolbar etc" & "Minimize Ribbon" I'm still using 8.0.0.439thanks, Syble

Syble,
Legacy doesn't automatically update as I'm sure you know. It does update
some items on the Home Tab automatically - but there is a setting that
controls this.
Legacy has a setting to only check the internet if you click a link. See
under the Options button on the Home Tab - then choose Options -
Internet Options.
