William,

You omitted "updated" CB GUIs dated Dec. 6, 2004, Dec. 27, 2004 and Dec. 27,
2004 too!

Never, ever, download a new CB GUI and install it.  Let someone else who thinks
it will cure all their ills test it!  :)  And even if it receives raves, it may
not work on YOUR computer like you expect.  DHM
