I had the same thing happen to me once.  Also, the first time I ran b5 it 
told me there were other copies in use so my options were a licence or 
demo.  There wasn't, nor had there ever been any other copies of OmniWeb 
installed and/or running on any machine other than my own.

The bookmarks in use msg was after using OmniWeb, logging out, and then 
logging back in and firing up OW again.  It has just happened once for me 
so far.


Where are the release notes for b5?  Will they be up soon???
