Is there a way to stop Program checking for update

Hello All:

I have been running on win ME, Int. Explorer vs. 6.01 sp - a licensed
version of a Shareware Indexing (file management for Hard drive and
removeable media) Program. Within past week when Program is opened - a
small screen flashes saying checking for update. Program then shuts down
and my monitor goes black with error message: Vwin32(05)T 000012DO Error OE:
0028: CO2AB4A8. I press any key and get back into windows. But Program
will not run. Authors of Program will not respond - though their online
Registration Agent still is willing to accept licensing money. But, not
answer why this is happening. If I discontinue cable connection - Program
runs fine. Reinstallation clearly shows registered to me. Everything
else on system just fine. Problem only with this paid for Program -which I
suspect Author wishes would go away - so they can offer an updated/changed
version. .

Is there a way to disable the auto checking feature that occurs after
attempt is made to open program/ and I am on line (always on - cable
connection).

Do you have a URL for the program/authors?
