Password Corral - v3.4.1.76 - 8/3/2000
----------------------------------------------------------------------

New in v3.4.1.76 - 8/3/2000:

 * Changing the color of hyperlinks in the notes field from the
   Options dialog had no effect. This bug has been fixed.


New in v3.4.1.75 - 8/3/2000:

 * You can now set Password Corral to time out to the system tray
   after a given period of time. With the tray password protection
   feature enabled, this will give you added protection if you should
   forget that Password Corral is running and walk away from your PC.
 * Gridlines in the main password window are now turned on by default
   for new user accounts.
 * Note fields on both the New Password and Edit Password dialogs have
   been expanded slightly to display a full five lines of text.
 * The new feature introduced in v3.4.0.56 to check the Internet for a
   more recent version of Password Corral had a bug which would
   prevent Windows 2000 (and possibly Win9x) from shutting down if
   Password Corral was running. This is a bug in a component in the
   compiler, and unfortunately it can't be solved by us. The feature
   was removed and we hope to bring it back in the near future when it
   can be made to work properly.
 * There were some serious display problems with new code introduced
   in v3.4.0.56 to underline and activate FILE:// hyperlinks in the
   Notes field that used long filenames. As a result this code has
   been removed. The problem is being looked at, but in the meantime
   FILE:// links with long filenames are no longer supported at this
   time. When it rains, it pours! <G> Sorry for the inconvenience.
 * If the "Remember last used username when logging on" feature was
   disabled, the cursor would appear in the password text box at logon
   instead of the username text box. This bug has been fixed.
 * The bug mentioned in the README.TXT file that, under certain
   circumstances, could prevent Password Corral from being minimized,
   has been fixed.
 * Updated on-line and What's This help.
 * Minor update to the README.TXT file.


New in v3.4.0.56 - 6/22/2000:

 * New menu item added to the Help menu to check for a newer version
   of Password Corral on the Internet. Status bar is now split to show
   messages relating to the connection process.
 * The Username field on the logon dialog box is now a drop-down list.
   It displays all Password Corral usernames and allows for easier
   selection.
 * You can now select a custom color for hyperlinks that appear in the
   Notes field.
 * "FILE//" hyperlinks in the Notes field now support long filenames
   when the path is wrapped in quotes (for example:
   FILE://"c:\program files\password corral")
 * A date and timestamp is now displayed on printed password lists.
 * It was possible for the Copy and Delete toolbar buttons to remain
   enabled when the focus/cursor was in the Notes field, even when no
   text was selected. This bug has been fixed.
 * Updated on-line and What's This help.
 * Minor update to the README.TXT file.


New in v3.3.2.48 - 3/20/2000:

 * Password Corral can now be set to be displayed on top of other
   windows so it cannot be hidden.
 * "FILE://" links in the Notes field are now hyperlinks and will
   launch the specified file or open the specified folder.
 * "HTTPS:" hyperlinks in the Notes field are now clickable.
 * The username you are currently logged in under is now displayed in
   the program's titlebar.
 * Updated on-line and What's This help.
 * Minor update to the README.TXT file.


New in v3.3.1.44 - 1/19/2000:

 * You can now export your password list unencrypted. Note that we
   discourage the frequent use of this feature as it directly
   compromises the security of your password data. If you do use the
   feature, you should also use a wiping utility to remove the export
   file securely from your hard disk when you've finished using it.
   This feature has been added (by multiple requests from users) so
   that passwords can be manually exported to other platforms (Palm,
   WinCE, etc.). The export file is not designed to import directly to
   other platforms; only for you to cut and paste data from it as you
   see fit.
   *** Unencrypted export files CANNOT be imported back into ***
   *** Password Corral.                                      ***
 * If the first word in the Notes panel for the selected password was
   a hyperlink, it would not be underlined or colored. This bug has
   been fixed.
 * Password Corral would sometimes minimize to the system tray even
   though the program was not set to do so from the Options dialog.
   This bug has been fixed.
 * Minor update to the README.TXT file.
 * Minor update to the BUGS.TXT file.


New in v3.3.0.41 - 1/5/2000:

 * Password Corral can now be minimized to the system tray. New
   options have been provided to require entry of your master password
   before the program can be "restored" for normal use.
 * Hyperlinks in the Notes field are now "clickable", and will start
   the default browser on your system. Works for any text that starts
   with "http", "www" or "ftp". You can also right-click on any word
   and choose to launch it in the Web browser - great for links that
   don't start with the more common prefixes.
 * You can now paste text on the Windows clipboard as a new password
   into Password Corral. A new paste menu item and toolbar button have
   been added.
 * There is a new menu item in the Edit menu to immediately clear the
   Windows clipboard.
 * The selected password now remains highlighted even after clicking
   in the Notes field.
 * If AutoExport was enabled, and there were no passwords in the
   password list, Password Corral would display the progress bar and
   freeze when exiting. This bug has been fixed.
 * The cowboy is back on the logon screen!
 * Updated README.TXT file.
 * Updated on-line and What's This help.


New in v3.2.4.33 - 12/7/99:

 * Printing has been enhanced. The "Notes" field is now printed in
   addition to the description, username and password fields. Printed
   entries are now separated by a short, dashed line. Note that we
   still discourage the practice of printing your password list, and
   the print feature in Password Corral is still *not* a thing of
   beauty.
 * All instances to the Cygnus Productions web page and e-mail
   addresses have been changed to reflect our new ISP. This includes
   changes to the 'About' box, on-line help file and text files.


New in v3.2.3.28 - 10/12/99:

 * The QuickView window could be displayed, even when the password
   protect feature was enabled, by selecting the 'QuickView' menu
   item from the 'View' menu. Security for displaying the QuickView
   window by pressing the SPACEBAR was unaffected. This bug has been
   fixed. It's highly recommended that those using the password
   protect feature of Password Corral upgrade to this new version.
 * Minor update to the README.TXT file.
 * Minor update to the FAQ.TXT file.


New in v3.2.2.27 - 9/22/99:

 * Pressing the SpaceBar with a password in your list highlighted will
   now display a popup window with all the password information
   decrypted. The window will disappear when the SPACEBAR is released.
 * A "Display gridlines" option has been added to the 'General' tab of
   the Options dialog box.
 * You can now display gridlines in the main password list by checking
   the new option in the 'General' tab of the Options dialog box.
 * Comment fields in both the New and Edit Password dialogs are now
   slightly taller.
 * Made another fix to try and correct the problem with the on-line
   help's text appearing too small on some user's PCs. Please contact
   us if you are still experiencing this problem. 
 * Minor modification to the 'Logon' screen image.
 * Minor modification to the 'About' screen.
 * Updated on-line and What's This help.


New in v3.2.1.22 - 8/25/99:

 * When the option to automatically export your password list was
   enabled, and the destination directory no longer existed, Password
   Corral would generate an error and loop endlessly on the export
   progress bar. This bug has been fixed.
 * It was sometimes possible to enter an invalid directory for the
   auto-export feature's output path. This bug has been fixed.
 * Updated the on-line help file to attempt to fix the problem with
   the font appearing too small for some users. Let us know if you're
   still experiencing this problem.


New in v3.2.0.21 - 7/9/99:

 * You can now select between viewing the password list in the
   standard "Details" view which displays all information about each
   password, or a new view called "List" which only displays the
   description (double-click to see the information).
 * Added a "Fonts" tab to the Options dialog box.
 * You can now select a custom font for both the password list and the
   comments box.
 * You can now set Password Corral to remember the last used username
   when logging on. The option is selectable from the "Security" tab
   in the Options dialog.
 * The "Delete All" button has been removed from the toolbar. It can
   still be accessed from the Edit menu.
 * When selecting "Delete All" from the Edit menu, the warning dialog
   box now has the "No" button selected by default.
 * A "New User" button has been added to the plain logon dialog box.
 * Right-clicking on a different password from a previously selected
   one in the password list would fail to update the "Comments" field.
   This bug has been fixed.
 * The TAB order was out of sequence for the 'Security' tab in the
   Options dialog box. This bug has been fixed.
 * Corrected the misspelled "entered" in the warning dialog that is
   displayed when an attempt is made to create a new user and the
   username already exists.
 * Updated copy in the About dialog.
 * Updated README.TXT file.
 * Updated on-line and What's This help.


New in v3.1.1.17 - 5/20/99:

 * The currently selected password will now scroll into view
   automatically whenever the password list needs to be updated.
 * Corrected the misspelled "Export Passwords" in the File menu.
 * The About box has been "toned down".


New in v3.1.0.14 - 3/16/99:

 * The password protection feature has been upgraded to fully protect
   all features of Password Corral. It is now impossible to perform
   any action, including display of the Options dialog or editing
   passwords, while the password protect feature is enabled *and*
   the 'Show Passwords' option is toggled off. See the on-line help
   file for more information.
 * There is now an option to display the logon dialog box using a
   standard window and controls as opposed to the fancy dialog.
 * Corrected the misspelled "Username" on both the New Password and
   Edit Password dialog boxes.

   password list was empty. This bug has been fixed.

New in v3.0.0.12 - 3/10/99:

**********************************************************************
*** As of v3.0.0, Password Corral no longer supports password      *** 
*** export files from versions of Password Corral earlier than     *** 
*** v2.0.3. Note that upgrading from versions prior to v2.0.3 is   ***
*** still supported (be sure to create a new password export file).***
**********************************************************************

 * Description and Comments information is now encrypted along with
   your username and password data. Upon starting this new version,
   Password Corral will update your existing password info by
   encrypting the two fields. This only happens the first time you run
   the new version. Note that export files generated by this new
   version of Password Corral cannot be imported properly by older
   versions.
 * You can now copy username information to the clipboard.
 * Right-clicking on a password in the password list now allows you to
   copy password or username information to the clipboard.
 * New 'Security' tab added to the Options dialog box.
 * You can now password-protect displaying your password list in plain
   text when toggling the 'Show Passwords' option. This will allow you
   to keep Password Corral running when you're away from your
   computer, and still maintain security of your information.
 * Options in the 'Security' tab allow you to view description and
   comment information in plain text, even when the 'Show Passwords'
   option is toggled off.

 * When changing your master password, the speed of re-encryption of
   your password list has been increased dramatically.

 * A new Copy item has been added to the right-click popup menu for
   the Comments field.

   'Security' option tab.

   in the main menu.
 * The Auto-Export Path now defaults to "PASSWORDS.TXT" instead of
   "PASSWORD.TXT".
 * Minor changes to the logon screen.
 * When the PC running Password Corral was set to use large system
   fonts, the Options dialog would resize itself incorrectly when
   displayed, covering up the 'Done' and 'Cancel' buttons, as well as
   the path-browse button for the Auto Export feature. This bug has
   been fixed. See BUGS.TXT for more information.
 * Clicking or right-clicking on open space in the password list,
   after first having clicked on a password in the list, would leave
   the cut, copy and delete toolbar buttons enabled. If they were then
   used without a password being selected an error would occur. This
   bug has been fixed.
 * When focus was on the Comments field on the main password window,
   whether text in the Comments box was selected or not, the Cut and
   Delete toolbar buttons would remain enabled. This bug has been
   fixed.
 * Changes to the README.TXT file.
 * Updated on-line and What's This help.


New in v2.3.1.24 - 2/4/99:

 * Pressing a lower case "p" in the username field of the logon form
   would bring up the on-line help and not register in the field. This
   bug has been fixed.


New in v2.3.0.23 - 2/2/99:

 * New hot key added (ESC key) to minimize the main window. Good for
   quickly hiding your open password list from "shoulder surfers".

   text.
 * Notes panel on the main window now adheres to your standard Windows

 * Resizing the password list by using the splitter bar now occurs in
   real-time.
 * New hot key added to open the Options dialog (F2).
 * Resizing the password list with the splitter bar to it's minimum
   size would cause the list to disappear entirely and no longer be
   visible upon restarts of the program. This bug had been fixed. See
   BUGS.TXT for more information.
 * The Add New and Edit Password dialogs would allow you to enter
   negative values for the password expiration interval and days till
   expiration values. This bug has been fixed.
 * The browse button in the Options dialog remained enabled even when

 * Password Corral is now Year 2000 ready. Note to users with non-US
   date formats: The method which Password Corral uses to handle dates
   internally has changed. If you're using a date format other than
   the standard US format, the first time you start Password Corral it
   will not warn you about expired passwords and will not update days
   till expiration for existing passwords. This will only occur the
   first time you start the new version. If you have any other
   problems with password expiration warnings or Y2K please contact
   us immediately.


New in v2.0.4.12 - 12/9/98:

 * Password expiration dates would sometimes fail to update and
   expiration messages may not appear. This bug has been fixed.


New in v2.0.3.10 - 12/1/98:

 * Password export files would fail to import properly if any of the
   passwords had a carriage return on the "Notes" field. This bug has
   been fixed. Re-export your passwords using this new version to
   create a valid export file. This new version of Password Corral
   will read old export files, but will still generate errors if the
   old export file contains carriage returns. See the BUGS.TXT file for
   more information on importing "corrupted" older export files.
 * Password Corral would corrupt usernames that were imported if the
   current master password was different from the password that
   created the export file. This bug has been fixed.
 * Password Corral would still generate some unneeded registry
   entries. This bug has been fixed.

 * Minor changes to the README.TXT file.

   list from appearing if PC was using a local date format different
   from the standard US date format. This bug has been fixed.


New in v2.0.0.7 - 9/10/98:

 * System/Username field has now been split into two separate fields
   called Description and Username. Now you can keep the username that
   goes along with a password separate from the description or notes
   section. The new username field is encrypted as well.
 * Passwords can now have expiration dates. A visual warning will be
   given each time Password Corral is started for passwords that have
   expired or are past expiration.
 * You can now print your password list.
 * The notes panel can now be resized.

   bring up the Edit Password window.

 * Password Corral no longer creates blank entries in the registry for
   fields that have no data in them (e.g. comments, etc.).
 * When editing a password, the selected entry is now updated in the
   password list instead of a full list refresh being performed.
 * Uninstalling Password Corral will now remove all existing user
   accounts and password lists from the registry.
 * Selecting "Change Logon Password" when there were no passwords in
   the password list would allow you to select a new password, but
   then generate a program error. The new password was saved to the
   registry but Password Corral became hung in a dialog box. This bug
   has been fixed.
 * Selecting the File menu when there were no passwords in the
   password list left the "Import Passwords" item grayed out and
   unselectable (though the toolbar button still functioned). This bug
   has been fixed.
 * After selecting "Show Passwords", the hourglass would still be
   displayed when the pointer was moved over certain areas of the main
   window. This bug has been fixed.
 * Updated on-line and What's This help


New in v1.5.2.62 - 7/14/98:

 * It was possible to create a new user account with the same name as
   an existing account. Though there was no breach of security (you'd
   still have to know the other user's password), it would render the
   existing password list unreadable. This bug has been fixed.
 * When changing your logon password, Password Corral appeared to
   freeze, when in actuality it was re-encrypting your passwords in
   the background. The hourglass and a progress meter are now
   displayed.
 * Reduced the size of the logon screen.
 * Logon screen graphic now resizes to the window size
   (for non-standard system font sizes).
 * Added hi-color program icon.

 * Passwords are now sorted in the main window by system name.
 * The currently selected password now remains selected when the "Show
   Passwords" menu item is toggled.
 * Minimizing the main window would cause it to appear on the desktop
   as opposed to the taskbar. This bug has been fixed.
 * The import progress bar would sometimes reset itself while
   importing passwords. This bug has been fixed.

   update the comments field on the main window. This bug has been
   fixed.

 * Pressing the 'Exit' button on the login form would cause the main
   Password Corral window to quickly appear and then disappear before
   the application terminated. This bug has been fixed.
 * After completing an import, the hourglass would still be displayed
   when the pointer was moved over certain areas of the main window.
   This bug has been fixed.
