Hi guys,

Last night I finally decided to update to 2.5 and found that I can't. I'm currently running 2.3 (status line: Kindle 2.3 (399380047) + SSi 0.1) with the screensaver hack.

In the past doing an update was as simple as copying the uninstall file, updating, and restarting. But every attempt to do that — with the uninstall file I kept on my computer hard drive from the install process, with a new version downloaded from here, with an attempt to reinstall and then deinstall — led to a 007 error and a failed update.

Any ideas about where to go from here?
