Admin Page will not load

I experienced a similar problem, I received a blank page when trying to login to the admin. Setting version_check=off got me past the problem, but what are the implications of this, will I find myself backlevel in the future?

I wouldn't lose too much sleep over that, I always deactivate it. Since new versions come out at most 2-3 times a year, seems a bit of an overkill to check every time you go to your admin page.
Much easier to pop into the forum periodically, and more sociable.

Do periodically check it ... security issues are addressed in bugfixes as well as bugs of major significance ...

If you are not on the Announcements list then you have no way to know ...

You can also always check on the Tools ... Server Info ...
