The latest nightly builds (for the last 3 or 4 weeks) uses FW32 for the Transporter. This has only been modified for better sync'ing (I think) from FW31 which has been used since about 6.5.4. Just to reitterate, SS7 was using FW31 until a few weeks ago, but is now on FW32. -- MikeFish -

I have not reported this, since it doesn't seem to be easily reproducible. However, I do not know for sure if it has been or has not been reported. It will be interesting to see if going back to an earlier firmware version fixes it for anybody. Unfortunately, I haven't had a chance to do this,
