    +Why does LameXP try to connect to the web-server at 'xyz.com' secretly?
    +
    +LameXP does NOT connect to any web-server secretly! Of course the 'Auto Update' feature of LameXP unavoidably
    +has to connect to one of our update servers. However in no event LameXP will search for updates without your
    +agreement. Also LameXP will NOT send any personal information to the update server. It won't even send your
    +program version to the server. Instead the latest version number will be downloaded from the server first and
    +will then be compared to your current version number on the local computer. Moreover all information obtained
    +from the update server are protected with a digital signature (GnuPG) in order to prevent spoofing attacks.
    +
    +Note: As LameXP is a non-profit project, we cannot afford a huge server infrastructure. Therefore the update
    +server may be overstrained or unavailable once in a while. As we need to be able to distinguish the case in
    +which our server is failing from the case in which your local internet connection has a problem, LameXP will
    +run a short connectivity test on your local system first. For this purpose LameXP contains a list of 64 known
    +hosts, taken (mostly) from the well-known Alexa 'top 500 sites on the web' listing. LameXP will assume that
    +your internet connection is working properly if a certain minimum number (currently four) of the known hosts
    +is reachable. That's also the reason why you may notice LameXP is trying to connect to a "random" web-site.

    + How can I force LameXP to create ID3 version 2 (ID3v2) tags?

    The LAME encoder automatically chooses the proper ID3 tag version. By default it will create a version 1 tag,

    +Sorry, there is no LameXP user manual (yet), but we have an extensive F.A.Q. document ;-)
