Thank you.  It wasn't when I checked earlier.

No worries, I'd refreshed that page several times in the last couple of hours without seeing any changes.

Thanks Corrine and satrow. Looks like I'll be updating some browsers.

That's because I made four images last night after checking several times a day for an update.  ;)

If i would not have made the images, I'd still be waiting for the update.  8)

That seems to be a regular occurrence -- plodr makes new images, there's an update the next day.

I know the feeling.  8)

Fortunately I keep a note card titled changes since image made 10Feb. As things are upgraded removed or added, I put them on the list. If I need to restore an image, then I'll know exactly what other changes I have to do.

I lost one of my favorite extensions with version 44. :(  No more Text Area Cache.   Fortunately, Lazarus does  pretty much the same thing, only you have more clicks to get a choice of what to restore.
