This release addresses several bugfixes and some security issues only affecting Internet Explorer. Additionally, to prevent dictionary attacks happening on some other board to crack user passwords, there is a new feature to limit the number of logins. This feature is configured in two ways, defining the number of maximum allowed logins and setting a time period after the user is allowed to login again.
