checking for updates issue

Every time I have the program check for updates, it tells me it has 0 new and 3 updated plugins and asks if it wants me to download and install them. I say OK, to install them, then I get a box saying 0 new and 0 updated plugins were installed. I had to change the preferences because it would do this every time I started up the program. It is still doing it every time I check for updates manually.

How do I get it to perform the update, or at least to stop asking me about it?

Thanks,

Alexandria
