Funny, I JUST updated to 1.3.0 yesterday on all my machines.

Thanks for the heads up!!

UVI Falcon was updated from 3.0.1 to 3.0.2. I have no idea what's new as clicking on the Release Notes link in UVI Portal always opens a PDF that is one version behind. Weird?

SIDE PEEVE: Version notes without dates.

SIDE PEEVE: Version notes without dates.

Yeah... I sent a tech request to UVI asking what gives? I even cleared my browser cache and reloaded the Release Notes PDF on my end to see if it was my error. Seriously... this has been a problem with UVI for a long time now.

Thanks for posting this. I still had v 1.2.3 installed. I'd fallen a little behind.
