There have been other reports in the last few days of AV programs falsely reporting GS911 downloads as Malware, either turn off AV to do the download or find where the exclusion setting is and set an exclusion plus report it to the AV Co as a false report

Hi Wayne
Hope you ok.
As I thought.
Also noticed today that both types of updates ---  show results in Kilometers and service mileage age is show in kilometers used to be in miles , bit of a pain for us oldun's in the Uk who like our info with miles on it.

Just noticed  in a thread Jughead's  posting about the same Doh.

Yes, All OK down under, we are still mad down here, thanks for helping out Paul with the GS911 checks, expecting an email from him at the moment

Kms/Miles etc should jus be set in preferences unless a new bug has been introduced in which case I expect it will get squashed quickly

If Jughead has felt it necessary to comment on it there is probably a good reason, he knows what he is doing on the bikes and the GS911

It may be that the default has changed to metric or that the installer ignored user settings of the old version
