Gnucash access to internet when starting up

[Nathan Buchanan]

Hi Richard!

The exe first released after the announcement (and was up for about 20 hours
or so) didn't include the fix to this problem that 2.2.2 was supposed to
include. If you downloaded 2.2.2 the day it was released, could you please
re-download it and re-install it from the new exe?

The new exe has a md5sum of db243c367c2238038c46f2a9c3eaf15d

If this does not solve your problem, please write back.

This was http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=363648

Thanks,
Nathan
