/**
 * Threaded class to check for updates in the background.
 * <P>
 * This is the class that handles the mind control and stuff for
 * spying on our users and stealing their personal information.
 * A random ID number is generated for each user, and hits the server
 * to check for updates. Also included is the operating system and
 * its version and the version of Java being used to run Processing.
 * <P>
 * The ID number also helps provide us a general idea of how many
 * people are using Processing, which helps us when writing grant
 * proposals and that kind of thing so that we can keep Processing free.
