This is an update to the ocx that drives most of the intranet
applications. It is recommended to upgrade to this version as it is
backwards compatible and brings many improvements.

*For Users*

* Much faster at delivering pages
* An end, hopefully, to incomplete pages
* Will make older apps work correctly with the new groups feature

*For Developers*

* Support for basic and digest authentication
* Ability to group Intranet applications together.
* VB6 demo app extended with tray icon, service support, docking in
the launcher and examples of using the authentication
* Ability to change the broadcast IP
* Changes to how it binds to localhost which will make message
receiving more reliable

The groups feature is probably the most useful change. By default all
applications will be in the group 'Home'  and in this state you will
notice absolutely no differences! As soon as one intranet application is
put in a different group you will see a '+' sign appear on the far right
of the blue bar. Clicking on the + will show  a screen listing all the
groups and which app is in which group. You will also find that you will
only see icons in the blue bar from other applications in the same
group. So hopefully you can now neatly seperate end user apps from the
more complex data source apps. The only problem will be the existing
apps as without a configuration option to change the group the
application will be stuck in the Home group. I will be updating my apps
to support the feature and would ask other developers to support it as
they bring out new versions.
