Yeah, that's what I were trying to say that I know already.

Also, I'm concerned about future upgrades and mostly updates.

Anyway even talking in my original language with my dad, my brothers or my friend, I'm quite used to people not understanding what I'm trying to say. :P

So, I'll keep trying...

I want technical details. I don't want to know how it's scripted, although if I have to go and look how the scripts work I can do it, and it will take me a lot of time and I'll probably just let it go and forget about concerning with updates.

I want to know how the updating system / module works so I can prevent myself from scripting wrong things that will disturb it while it may be not needed, or it might have a way to do it that will get along with the updating module.

I do already know that by changing whatever I want only on database and template (I mean the content, not the indexes, of course) the update will probably work flawless, unless it's a major upgrade totally unpredicted thing.

This happens because those two things are already set in a way expecting that updates will come. I could also change stuff in the same way if I knew how the update works.

The main reason I'm concerned is purely security. I do not know how secure the cart is right now and I do not know if tomorrow they gona release a security patch that is very complicated to manually apply. But ANY updates and upgrades they release for SURE will fit the untouched version and MOST LIKELY any version that had changes only on database and template.

But, also it's always good to have your website updated with new features as well, and open to easyly set new paid modules what so ever.

Anyway, thanks for your reply, shan. It is much appreciated!
