Hmm... Well, this is slightly encouraging, but hearing positive results
from two people that never experienced the problem is not terribly
reassuring. I'm certain I'm not alone in experiencing these issues--there
was a lot of noise about it when 0.25 first came out, and subsequent -fixes
didn't fix these problems. Hopefully some others will chime in with
positive results.

Thanks,

Karl
