Exactly. You provided a valuable service. I was moments away from clicking yes on the prompt to update. Needless to say, I decided to wait.

It's good to stay informed about these things.

The fact that they weren't was a dead giveaway that it only pertained to those who would--and judging by the responses in the thread did--"get it". The only problem came when those who were unaffected let their curiosity get the best of them. In the future, keep in mind that; "If you have to ask, it obviously doesn't affect you."

But next time, I'll just avoid posting a super-secret thread altogether. That way, no one will have to interpret, wonder, deduce or otherwise be inconvenienced by asking them to flex their powers of reasoning.

I apologize for finding an obviously successful way to spread the word without breaking (or even flirting with the idea of breaking) forum rules.
But I like super-secret threads.

All kidding aside. No need to apologize. I join with the others in saying I appreciate the heads up.

Other than breaking the unmentionable and adding proxy support, what else does this upgrade offer? Does anyone know??

Thanks for the heads-up - I needed it! I installed an old version of K4PC on a new machine about a month ago and forgot to deselect the automatic update box. I should know better by now, but it just got by me this time. Fortunately it hadn't updated yet, and the nasty little checkmark is gone now, so everything's good. Thanks again!

So, I had my K4PC on auto-update, unknowingly, and when I loaded K4PC, it updated... However, when all was said and done it only updated to 1.4.1 and not to 1.5. Was this supposed to be the case? I really didn't want it to update, so I'm not really complaining, but I did find it odd. As it is, I really don't use K4PC, so perhaps the fact that I hadn't used it since early March meant I was a couple of versions behind? As it is, I turned off the auto-update for now for fear of breaking my ability to bring my books into Calibre and manage them and their metadata as I see fit. I guess I should just feel lucky that I was behind as 1.4.1 seems to work just fine...

Last, thanks to the person(s) who posted and provided links to the 1.4 versions of K4PC. I'm keeping those with my software archive just in case.
