Releases JAWS 8.0 Update Build1166, or is that 1171?

Hi. When I checked for updates, I
was told I was running
the latest version, and I'm running build
1163.
The interesting thing is that since others
had reported seing build
1171, I made like I was going to atempt to
download the latest
version of JAWS from the FS website.
But instead of just downloading build 1163
again, I slightly changed
the file name to reflect the current build
number.  in other words, i
changed it so the file name would be:
J8.0.1171U_ILM.exe
To my surprise, it actually worked
and I was given the
opportunity to download it. But since there
is such confusion about
build numbers and we don't even know what is
changed in this latest
version, I am going to hold off until I get
official word from FS.
and because of what happened last time with
automatic updates, I
think i'm going to stick with just
downloading fresh copies from the
FS website. I'll at least know I got a full
version in case automatic
updates screws up again.
