New Version Available

A new version is now available. It is much more reliable. The only problems I see are on Internet Explorer when a person first logs into a private blog. The requests to the server for comment data return with invalid data. Other visits to the page work well.

Again it doesn't work with anonymous comments.

Give it a shot (link is on the right side of the blog.)
