two small things I noticed with 6.01b5

They're really minor, but since upgrading to b5, I've noticed that 1) the MOTD no longer comes up, and 2) it no longer stops downloading encrypted rars. Both features worked in previous version, and both options are checked in options.

The MOTD is now only displayed when it changes. If you want to see old ones this can be done via the entry on the Help menu. This behaviour is not new to B5 - it has been there for a while.

I must have jumped a few versions, then, because I was getting it just a few days ago. I guess I should have said "my previous version" to be more specific.
