Hello,

I just installed Avro Keyboard yesterday, and this is really very cool software.
Writing Bengali with this soft is really very easy.
Great work, thanks.

But I have a complaint to make: Why this application constantly trying to connect with net without user's permission. This is not good. I'm hoping someone here might be kind enough to explain the behaviour and state the remedy.

Thanks.

I assume you are using the latest version (4.5.1). In this version Avro Keyboard tries to access the net to check for update information.

If you want to turn automatic update checking OFF, please follow this procedure:
icon11.gif Go to the Option dialog box
icon11.gif Click on the Auto update Check item of the left list.
icon11.gif Select Manually (When I click Check Now) item in the combo.

From now on, Avro Keyboard will not try to access the net until you check for update manually.

Hello, Thanks for responding.
Yes I'm using the version 4.5.1. smile.gif

As suggested I tried to follow the procedure; but I failed at the last step( i.e. select manually...), I selected Manually (When I click Check Now), then click on "apply" and "OK", but when I re-check the value in that field again somehow reset itself to the 7 days. cray.gif

What I did wrong? Plese help... help.gif


PS: My OS is WinXP Pro (SP2), incase if that matters.

I'm sorry. I forgot that it is a known bug of Avro Keyboard 4.5.1.

Please download the attachment for manually disabling Auto Update. Instructions are included in a Readme.txt file.
