    ! Menu Edit/New: when creating a new folder/file on a root drive a 
      prompt showed up "Are you sure you want to create an item in a 
      hidden system folder?". Nonsense. Fixed.
v4.40.0075 - 02.02.06 19:38
    + Revised support for XButtons (aka extension buttons, navigation 
      buttons): 2 special buttons on some mice that can be used for 
      moving backwards and forwards in the history.
      Beware, it's aircode! Those having XButtons, please test!!
      And, it's 2K/XP only.
    * Changed mouse wheel support routines. 
      Does it still work everywhere? In Win98 too...?
    + Toolbar: added "Open Command Prompt Here" button.

I have a Logitech MX700 cordless optical mouse and unfortunately the back/forward buttons don't work with v4.40.0064. :cry:
:cry: Where can you click those buttons in Explorer? Anywhere or above certain controls (tree, list...)?
Windows Explorer catches the click of the buttons literally anywhere...list, tree, toolbar, titlebar, statusbar, etc. Performs the same action irregardless of where the click occurs.

I also have a GE optical mouse that I bought at Best Buy; the back/forward buttons don't work with that mouse either.

I can definitely understand the need to have some features only in prof vers, but as one who has tried this feature, and who will also thus get a down-grade via this change, I'd suggest: Allow free users to set/retain, maybe two entries in list max, but retaining more would be only in prof.
Yep, that's even better :D

NO!!! That starts PSPad!!. Ctrl+Alt are no use to me since I use all of them for starting Windows applications. I'll investigate if I can use an AutoHotkey script to solve it (Ctrl+Alt and AltGr are regarded as different keys in AutHotkey) before I ask you to change it. That is, if there are any keys left!!

    * Revised professional-license-only features: under the free home 
      license you can try out the following features to full extent but 
      your settings won't be remembered between sessions.
      - Toolbar Customization
      - Color Filter
    * Find Files, Results to tab: when you choose "Results to tab Search 
      results" and a new "Search results" tab is auto-created it will now 
      also be auto-locked upon creation! Thus it stays the "Search 
      results" tab as long as you don't unlock it, or rename it, or close 
      it.
