BUG: Auto-updater will backload older signature.

I had my auto updater set to update at 11am.
At 9am I manually updated from 5683 to 5689.
At 11am, the auto-updater updated to signature file 5683!
This means the code does not test to see if (5683 >=5689) the client has
been updated with a higher signature version.
Please check.

PS. Is this this the proper place to report bugs? Should there be a
separate newsgroup to report bugs?
 
I believe that rather than being "real" that this is an appearance bug.

Try this:

Go to File, Check for updates.

You will see that you get two stars indicating your definitions and code are
current, but there won't be the additional lines indicating an actual update
and giving the version numbers, etc.

After this non-update, if you go to Help, About, you should see the current
version number--5689.

This is a known appearance bug--both the result of the autoupdate, and the
appearance in Help, about, can be wrong.
