AAAGGGHHHH!!!!!

daihard, delete this from pryan.org immediately - it suffers from the same brokenness as the official nightlies; I had no end of problems getting this to work correctly. Not only is it too big (37MB compared to 20040229's 28MB) but it broke far too easily and would not work right.

Damn.

Back to 20040229.

Uh-oh. What kind of brokenness is the official build going through? I used this build a bit at home and didn't run into any nasty issues.

The current builds have a broken groupbox which causes weird window size issues on the Help->About and Options dialogs. Not only that but something weird happened when the nightlies were built that caused their sizes to inflate dramatically.

TO elaborate, the UI on this build was majorly messed up - the above window bugs cropped up, extensions refused to install at all and it was generally acting weird, even after a clean profile and a clean installation.

Yeah, looks like the Option/Tools dialog box is totally messed up. I'd imagine it's a fairly easy fix if you know which source file to look at. I haven't run into any functional breakage yet.
