This is a maintenance release, including minor fixes and enhancements.

2.1 Critical items

2.1.1. Interaction with anti-virus software

Some anti-virus programs automatically scan downloaded HTML pages, blocking the executions of scripts that are considered potentially dangerous. Because the TRD Editor is an HTML application and some of its pages interact with files in the local file system, these anti-virus programs may block the execution of scripts, thus compromising the operation of the TRD Editor. To avoid this behavior, you should configure your anti-virus software, disabling script blocking.

In Norton SystemWorks the above configuration may be performed as follows:

• open Norton SystemWorks
• go to Options | Norton AntiVirus
• select "Script blocking" in the tree area and uncheck "Enable Script Blocking" (see screen capture below)

Note: In some cases Norton AntiVirus keeps interfering with the TRD Editor, even if "Script blocking" was disabled. It appears that a configuration or a LiveUpdate operation re-enables the "Script blocking" option. If during the operation of the TRD Editor you receive a warning regarding a script, select the option "allow this activity once". Afterwards, check the "Script blocking" option, as indicated before.
