"Content access denied" when checking for updates

Post by citizen »

I'm receiving this error as of this morning. I've tried 2 different networks and get the same error on both.

Checking for a new VirtualBox version...
The network operation failed with the following error: Content access denied.

I tried posting an image of it but the forum rules won't allow it.

Checking for updates has been broken for awhile. Just go to VirtualBox.org and see if there are newer updates. Which there are. 5.0.4 is the current release.

There are three groups of people. Those that can count and those that can't.
