I've been using this script with WMP and it works great.  My only problem, is the "Check for updates" options.  I'm using IE 7 and due to some security setting somewhere, it's not allowing the "Check for updates' option to work.  I've tried changing security options every which way I can think of but still can't get it to work.  Has anyone run into this and figured out which option(s) to change to allow the update feature to work?

The Now Playing update service is down.
