Clicking the “Download new definitions!” button is the manual way to update them and it simply POSTS a form with the update values encoded in that page of your wp-admin. How would your host be blocking that? Do you get an error message? Do they have a post size limit maybe?
If you use the “Automatic Update” method that is available as premium feature then the update will be downloaded directly from my server. I’m not sure how your server could block that either without disabling all remote_get methods in your PHP version.
