Heya List,

Those who have updated this latest update patch version 7.10.500, has it fixed
known bugs in some websites? Does list view work in Bear share now in 7.1? Any
positive feedback with those who have installed it would be great, cause one
thing I get nervous about is updates as they sometimes can cause more problems
than not

Cheers,

Jim from Oz
