New FolderShare client for Windows available

Hi, FolderShare friends,

There's a new version of FolderShare for Windows that's designed to help
improve security and reliability. To bring as many people as possible up to
date, we'll start prompting users to upgrade this week. When the time comes,
you won't be able to sign in until you update.

We understand this process may cause some inconvenience, so we strongly
encourage you to get a head start and install the new version today.

Thanks for your patience as we get FolderShare into even better shape!

-The FolderShare team

RE: New FolderShare client for Windows available

More details would be nice.I just installed and it seems to be running fine.
Any chance that Unicode support made it into this version?

This release only has bug fixes focused on stability. We know that Unicode
support is a top request.

Re: New FolderShare client for Windows available

I have the same issue on Vista 64-bit SP1 - on running the clietn for the
first time it gives an error message saying that the version is old and a new
one needs to be installed, when it is in fact the latest version. It just
quits after that.
