This is generally what happens. From memory, JWS will look up the URL
to see if there's an update, but if the lookup takes too long, it will
just launch the cached app in stead.
I regularly run JWS apps from the generated desktop and start menu
shortcuts, and it always updates the app if necessary when launching.
If the user has checked the "off-line" option in the control panel, I
am not sure what JWS does, but my guess would be that it doesn't check
for updates.
