I can't agree with this advice. Doing this means that you will not be informed of updates. In my view What you really need to do is when you see this window is go to the winamp web page and download the latest version of the program. Install it. then this window will go away and you will have the latest version of the program. It is really important to keep programs like winamp up to date because wholes and bugs are found in these types of programs all the time that once known could make your system open to attack.
