How to disable new version notifications?

Whenever I open Sublime Text it throws a pop-up:

A new version of Sublime Text is available, download now?

How can I disable this check? My work blocks installing software updates.

Go to Preferences -> Settings-User and add there: "update_check": false

EDIT :

If it's not working then add this line 127.0.0.1 www.sublimetext.com in your host file

File Location

Windows : c:/windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts

Linux : /etc/hosts

Some linux distros are update intensive, others fall behind. And this nag is really annoying.

I've disabled the update nag by blocking the entire Sublime domain, thus the app can't check the latest version, thus no update nag.

Just add the line below to the hosts file:

127.0.0.1 www.sublimetext.com

Windows: C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\Etc\hosts

Mac/Linux: /etc/hosts

Note: Remember that you (or any other app) won't be able to access the Sublime website while this line is in the hosts file.

How about you block Sublime Text's connection via firewall? Create a new rule. It worked for me.
