The banshee log I was instructed to attach

I've just downloaded the 2.4.0 alpha of Banshee for Windows about ten minutes ago. Upon reaching the end of the installer, I chose to open Banshee immediately. Upon opening the program, I was prompted to update:

"Banshee Update available
A new version of Banshee (2.5.1) is available. Do you want to update?"

Naturally, I chose yes. I then got this dialog box:

"Update download failed
The download failed. Please try again later."

After closing and re-opening the program several times, I still get prompted to update each time Banshee starts, right when the main window appears. If I choose "No" the dialog box simply disappears and leaves me alone.

As of this moment, according to http://banshee.fm/download/, the current latest build for Windows is 2.4.0, so it seems strange that the program thinks there is a newer version, 2.5.1, when there clearly isn't. 

I enjoy using Banshee on linux and would love to see it released on Windows. Hope this helps.
