[NJTechDiv] NLS braille eReader problem with shutting off

[carcione at access.net]

People on the Reader list think there's some problem with the Humanware
update server that's causing the Reader to shut down, so turning off
automatic update solves the issue by not checking the server. 

NLS says they're hoping for an update in a month or so.

Thanks, Tracy. I'm having the same problem. I'll try your fix. This bug has
shown me how deeply the EReader is woven into my life. I'm really bummed
without it. I too read in the evening. With me, it's just before I go to
bed.

I was going crazy the last couple days because my reader was shutting down
every few minutes.  There's talk on the reader list that the problem can be
solved by going to settings and turning off automatic update.  I've just
done this, so we'll see.  The problem seems to happen in the evening, so I
won't know until then. 

So, if others are having the same problem, that's the possible fix.
