IMO polling at intervals is also overkill (both for the user and for the
servers). LO should have an option to Check at startup or Check manually
(which disables automatic checking)

I think the best solution set it to poll once a week, and we must ensure
though that connections get closed once the polling to see if a newer
version is available is complete.

My previous suggestion was not so good. "Check at startup" could make it
check several times per day (depending on user habits). Check once a week is
good enough for regular users but is bad for anxious users :)

"Check daily" (with a saved flag) seems like the best option.

There could be 3 options for this

check daily, weekly, and monthly or disable the checks all together.
