Alias:

The new version has still not been posted on their download page, nor via
the live update.
Someone posted the direct link to the new version in one of these newsgroups
earlier, and that's how I downloaded mine. Sorry, but I no longer have the
link.

I had no problem getting it from their download page, and that was two
hours ago, and I just checked now and it is still there.
