Good to know, thanks.

So, if the user doesn't have anything checked in the dialog, to wit:

"Automatically Check For Updates", then the rest if grayed out.

Does this mean that because there are no options selected, the user will
be updated w/o being asked?

There are many users that believe that if there is nothing checked, this
will disable auto-updates. Perhaps adding a disclaimer in that dialog
box would be effective, yes?
