Error Checking For Updates

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Currently using Procurement 1.54, Windows 7 

Steps to reproduce problem:
1. Open Procurement on my home computer (connected to the interwebs through a 
Buffalo Router)
2. Error pops up immediately, and the debug information goes to the debug file

Output in the debug file:

System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: An exception occurred during the 
operation, making the result invalid. Check InnerException for exception 
details. ---> System.Net.WebException: Unable to connect to the remote server 
---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: No connection could be made because 
the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:9666
at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.EndConnect(IAsyncResult asyncResult)
at System.Net.ServicePoint.ConnectSocketInternal(Boolean connectFailure, Socket 
s4, Socket s6, Socket& socket, IPAddress& address, ConnectSocketState state, 
IAsyncResult asyncResult, Exception& exception)

--- End of inner exception stack trace ---
at System.ComponentModel.AsyncCompletedEventArgs.RaiseExceptionIfNecessary()
at Procurement.Utility.VersionChecker.client_DownloadStringCompleted(Object 
sender, DownloadStringCompletedEventArgs e)

Additional information:

Program works perfectly at work computer, also 1.54 in Windows 7. I've tried 
forwarding port 9666 and unblocking the port in Windows Firewall but no dice.

This is a network related issue, there is something on either your pc or 
network that is causing the connection to fail.

You'll either need to figure out what is blocking the connection on your pc, or 
alternatively you could try set "CheckForUpdates" to false in settings.xml, 
although Procurement might then be blocked when it tries to start downloading 
your tabs.

Anti-virus, proxy or applications like Comodo could also be the cause of the 
connection being blocked.

Thanks brah!

I'll check again. Any particular ports that need to be unblocked for 
Procurement? I assume I would need to do so for 9666.
