CrushFTP 5.1.0_37 to CrushFTP 5.1.0_45 URGENT BUG FIX!

If you downloaded CrushFTP from the time period 6/11/2010 to 6/22/2010 your version of CrushFTP will fall in this range.

Please update your copy of CrushFTP5 immediately to the latest build by selecting check for update from the File menu. Click the button to check for update, and answer YES to update even though you have the latest version. Tonight I will update my official version number forcing everyone to see the new update.

The bug is specific to CrushFTP 5, and causes a Denial of Service where CrushFTP is unusable. Do not wait to see if the bug can effect you, rather update immediately if your version ends in _37 through _45.

This is a critical bug.

Please update if you have those versions. Sorry I'm not going to give more info on the bug, but I don't want people accidentally, or maliciously to hurt themselves or others.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
