I'm inching closer. I tried Starcraft (in Battle.Net) again (after 
installing that any-any update last night). This time I got the entire 
Battle.Net background right away with what looked liked two empty status 
bars. I eventually had to do a manual log off. I got a different message 
this time:

"There is a new version of the software available - Battle.Net requires 
that you use the new version".

I'm skeptical though - when my son plays Starcraft online he is not told 
he needs the new version of the software.
