Is this to stop our rebsite counters?? :-( -- Graham Chiu

REBOL/View 1.2.1 has just been released. We recommend that you upgrade your copy of REBOL/View and View/Pro to this new version. http://www.rebol.com/download.html This version fixes: Icon DRAW evaluation bug that allowed foreign code to be executed at the desktop level. That problem has been eliminated. (Note that this bug did NOT compromise REBOL's built-in sandbox file protection, as that protection still remained in effect at the REBOL/View root directory level. Files outside of REBOL's directory tree were safe.) DRAW is no longer allowed within desktop icons. The HTTP POST operation has been fixed to properly ignore line termination in the transfer. You no longer need to pad out your HTTP uploads. (This is for read/custom http://... [post "data"]). Bugs that caused load/markup and debase to crash in rare cases have also been fixed. This release also introduces REBOL/View for the Macintosh. This is a significant accomplishment. Hats off to Jeff and Holger for making it happen. (Feel free to ask them how easy a job it was. ;) -Carl REBOL Technologies

Hi Brett, all, The link at the top of the page to the exe version is the old version of View, I used the link in the table of all version of view for view-pro031.zip and got the new version 1.2.1.3.1 for Windows. -Larry

I haven't tried this yet. Does it fix the problem where the desktop gets confused about which directory it is? -- Graham Chiu

Try running the 'upgrade' program from the 'tools' folder on the desktop. - Chris
