For all the ppl with the blinking cursor thing, it's a "feature" of FX and not a bug :D

Tools>Options>Advanced>General>Allow text to be selected using the keyboard. Turn this off and off goes the annoying cursor! It can be also enabled/disabled using F7 key.


By the way, in case anyone wants to d/l: (5 mb)

Dudes, RC3 is now available for download. Use your auto update in case you have RC2 or beta installed already.
