Fixed in this Release
This release resolves issues where Web Filtering was incorrectly blocking websites that were explicitly allowed or used self-signed certificates. We also fixed problems that could prevent security definitions from downloading, stop the software from installing, and cause false security alerts for trusted scripts.
