I had 3.6.8 then upgraded to 3.7 beta2. here what it shows. I even uninstall it and reinstalled it. same thing happens :S

[Valter]

Of course I will upgrade all of my hacks for 3.7, but not for beta versions. Once 3.7 final is released I'll upgrade my hacks asap.

Can't you make just a little exception ?
The final version should not really differs from this beta ?

Well it sort will but I wouldn't suspect the final version to be done for another 3 months or so if calculations are right.

[wassimeh]

oh well I upgraded to beta3 and it works now ...

[Stile2]

Is there anyway to make a private chat? We have a Leadership forum for our club that only certain user groups can see. I would like a chatbox in that forum that would be private to that forum only.

Thanks for any help,
Great Mod,
Keith
