    <li>
    When a slow computer is attached to a large number of projects,
    BOINC does work only for a few of them at a time,
    to avoid missed deadlines.
    <li>
    Fixes a bug in which Intellisense/Intellipoint
    closes applications while in screensaver mode.
    <li>
    Fixes bugs with managed deployments with Active Directory.
    <li>
    A new 'Select Computer' dialog remembers which computers you have connected to.
    <li>
    A new statistics tab has been added to the BOINC manager
    (thanks to Jens Breitbart for the great feature).
    <li>
    Support for UMTS networks.
    <li>
    Support for <a href=acct_mgt.php>account management websites</a>.
    <li>
    <a href=gui_rpc.php>Password protection for GUI access</a>.
    <li>
    BOINC Manager now uses buttons instead of web-type links.
    </ul>
    ",
    "bugs"=>"<ul>
    <li>
    Applications that were built before October 2004 do not
    display screensaver graphics with the Service or Shared install type,
    or the Single-user install type with the password protect screensaver
    option on NT based machines.
    <li>
    If BOINC runs at the same time as Windows XP 3-D screensavers,
    the system becomes sluggish and unresponsive.
    <li>
    Dial-up users should choose the single-user installation.
    <li>
    Graphics sometimes do not work with ATI Graphics card.
    This bug has been fixed, but it requires new applications to be built.  Please check 
    with the various projects to find out when they'll release a new applicaton with the fix.
