b11? That was a closed beta that was only available direct from
Livingston support. ALL closed betas have KNOWN problems. That should be
obvious. If they were generally good, they would have been released as an
open beta. The only reason why you are using a closed beta because you
needed fixes/improvements in the beta urgently enought to risk closed beta
code.
You ought to trash it and upgrade to b20. Not sure why you haven't done
this already.
