Description

When I UN-CHECK "Use a URL server for firmware upgrades other than www.pfsense.org" under "Updater Settings", and "Base URL:" is left BLANK, Auto Update shows:

Downloading new version information...done
Unable to check for updates.
Could not contact pfSense update server http://snapshots.pfsense.org/FreeBSD_RELENG_8_1/i386/pfSense_RELENG_2_0/.updaters/

It should not be checking for snapshots.

Also, pfSense should STOP checking ENTIRELY for Updates as it is logical for someone who does not wish it checking for Updates to leave the Base URL: BLANK, but for pfSense to check EACH and EVERY TIME the pages is refreshed or viewed... It is a bit irritating and creates unnecessary traffic.
