Check for new versions
Use this option to enable/disable automatic checks for new versions. Checks are
performed:
• 2 minutes after each startup of the WinRoute Firewall Engine,
• and then every 24 hours.
Results of each attempted update check (successful or not) is logged into the Debug
log (see chapter 20.6).
Check also for beta versions
Enable this option if you want WinRoute to perform also update checks for beta
versions.
If you wish to participate in testing of WinRoute beta versions, enable this option.
In case that you use WinRoute in operations in your company (i.e. at the Internet
gateway of your company), we recommend you not to use this option (beta versions
are not tested yet and they could endanger functionality of your networks, etc.).
