This means that the McneelUpdate service is not running on your machine. You may have disabled it some time ago? Anyway, you can enable it in the taskmanager under the services tab.

If you don’t want to do that you can click the Check Now... link that will open a webpage. It’ll give you a link to download if a newer release is available.
