What's new in version 4.0.8.6 (20.03.2014)
- Fixed: The updater hangs if the user executes it from a standard user account and
the program is running in system tray. The workaround was to manually close it first
from the system tray icon and then execute the updater. Now, the update will complete
even if the user does not close first the existing running instance.
- Fixed: The protocol is always set to TCP if the user modifies a rule from the
notification dialog and the protocol is set to ANY.
- Fixed: The Manage Rules window remains always on top after creating a new rule
from the options available on the right panel named "Create new rule". The same
behavior was also identified and fixed for the Main Panel window.
- Fixed: After a clean installation the default notification level is set to Low
level instead of Disabled level.
- New: The log of the installation/update can be now viewed if the user presses
the F12 key when the installation/update is complete (the EXIT button appears).
