Hi Everyone,

OmniWeb 5.5.4 beta 1 is now available! While this isn’t a huge update  
it does address a couple issues that we think everyone will appreciate.

First, we’ve addressed a security issue (as reported here: http:// 
nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2007-0478), this fix prevents code  
inside HTML comments to be executed that could occur in some  
circumstances.

Next, we fixed an issue with the history index that allows old  
content to get removed from the database. This means that your index  
should no longer grow to painfully large sizes and slow page loading  
performance down. Please note however, on first launch of 5.5.4 your  
history index file will be reset. This will not affect your History  
list but you will be required to revisit pages to include them in  
full text search of your history.

These in addition to some JavaScript and Localization fixes make up  
5.5.4, you can get the full release notes at:
