Did you install any 3rd party plugin in it that might be incompatible or can no longer be located in the directory specified in the preference setting?
No, I didn't install any plugins.

In the preference panel, try disabling the check ulead site every__ days box.
I looked in the General Preference, but there is no option for number of days. In the Help, there is Product Update on the Web, but it's rather manual and has no option for interval setting.
