During beta, the SP2 patch mistakenly thought that some of the SP1-touched files were "user modified" and did not patch them, leaving the files in the FFC directory a mixture of different versions.

Thanks Colin. Youve explained it to me. I will have to recheck the dates in the FFC. I am sure that very few people know about this potential problem. Thanks for pointing it out.

Is there a way to split the .MSP from the setup and extract ALL the FFC files?
