 changelog_url: http://dev.d-lan.net/projects/pmp/wiki/Changelog#110-Beta-4 
 </pre> 

 If a new version is available then the download dialog is shown with these information: 
 * The current version with its release date 
 * The last version with its release date and a link to download it 
 * A link to the changelog 
 * A check box to disable automatic check 

 The server may log all requests in a DETS table.
