Is there any way to change the Updater Application Block to check for updates only on user demand rather than polling every interval?

Our app tests a version table in our db to see if it should update, then
calls updater, so it shouldn't be too hard to do it based on a user decision

If mVersionControl.UpgradeAvailable Then
' frmSplashForm.Show()
Application.DoEvents()
InitializeAutoUpdate()
'Thread.Sleep(2000)
Application.DoEvents()
pnlStatus.Text = "Validating version..."
' frmSplashForm.Refresh()
If mVersionControl.UpgradeRequired Then
Dim iCount As Integer
mblnUpgradeInProcess = True
While mblnUpgradeInProcess
iCount = +1
Thread.Sleep(2000)
Application.DoEvents()
If (iCount Mod 180) = 0 Then
MessageBox.Show("New version is required. If
download has not finished, please contact Support.")
End If
End While
End If
End If

I don't think so, but it comes with the source, so you can modify it if you
would like. Then make it available to the rest of us ;-).

Thanks,

Sam
