Some poker sites let you fold if it's checked to you, but as far as I know, you can't do this at ultimate bet. But in this hand someone did:

Hand #6235629-62 at SnG-0028a (No Limit Hold'em Sit and Go)
Powered by UltimateBet
Started at 31/May/05 01:59:56

pandamamo is at seat 3 with 4440.
stinkypete123 is at seat 4 with 1680.
chipsnaces is at seat 6 with 3820.
DrumFreak420 is at seat 8 with 3090.
Hero is at seat 9 with 1970.
The button is at seat 6.

DrumFreak420 posts the small blind of 50.
Hero posts the big blind of 100.

Is this an option in the software that I don't know about?

It's not that I'd want it...just that I didn't think you could do this at UB. Although...I have seen several folds when checked to at the lower stakes party poker games.

Im sure you can.
Although when you try to fold when you have an option to check itll ask you if you are realyl sure u want to fold. If you click yes, you will fold a free hand.

kind of reminds me of this old guy that sat down at a 2/4 live game with me. He'd repeatedly raise preflop, flop and turn, getting the pot to over $100 many times, and then fold when half the time when it was checked to him on the river. My favorite part was that no one said a word about it.

ChezJ is an unknown quantity at this point
 at UB i believe that when you are heads up you can "fold and show" at any point.

yes, I think this is the case. I started noticing this after I started looking for it. I wasn't sure if it was because of HU or not.
