#63 request disabled check for updates

[Anonymous]

Hello. I don't know if you monitor these reports after 2020. I hope so. Can you create a .jar release that does NOT check for updates? Whenever Source Forge malfunctions, my copy of HelloNZB will not load. If no future updates are planned, then it should be OK to release a version that does not look for an update. No?

Example: Handshake failure between SF and HelloNZB...

Unfortunately this project is no longer maintained.
I was hoping someone would pick it up, but no luck so far ...
