Nice range of fixes and updates. The back and forward support is particularly convenient.

I couldn't log in for a good few hours after installing the update yesterday. I kept receiving 'Peer certificate cannot be authenticated error:14090086:SSL

Think it's worth noting that it just now updated for me as well. All I pressed was "Support" at the top and it said there was an update for Feb. 17th.
