if you really difficult to find the auto update option to turn it off, look for the winamp.ini found under c:\Program files\winamp folder. open this file and search for the line jtfe_autoupdate=1 change the value 1 to 0, e.g. jtfe_autoupdate=0 then restart winamp. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Warmest Regards, Allan Wong -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- Original Message ----- From: DJ DOCTOR P To: winamp4theblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, March 03, 2008 19:09 Subject: Turning Off Auto Updates In Winamp Hello list members. I uninstalled and reinstalled Winamp V5.35. But every now and then, that new update for Winamp window pops up. I tried to get out of it, and it wouldn't let me. I had to restart my computer to get red of it. I went in to preferences, but I couldn't find the check box to disable auto updates. Can someone please tell me where to look for that? Thanks in advance. John.
