When I did a test run of WM here's what happened:
* I renamed my addon folder because I didn't want WM to **** with my code.
* I copied a few select addons over to the addons folder to see how it would handle them
* Launch WM, see that it cannot download the updates
* Every single addon in the OTHER folder had it's TOC number updated

BAD BAD BAD! Big flashing red lights! You *don't* do that **** automatically. As I said above, you shouldn't be do it at all. Those numbers have a meaning, wiping them out makes them completely pointless. If you want to load the addons, turn on the option in the game... which can be done by WM with a siple edit of a text file for the user.
