Well, the server has been updated.  I just connected to it with the new version of Vent.  So everyone be sure to download the new Vent 3.0 and get it installed asap! :)

FWIW, on installing in WinXP...  I first uninstalled the old Vent version using the add/remove programs feature.  I then installed the new Vent in the same folder the old Vent had been in.  (That folder was deleted when I uninstalled the old version so I just recreated a folder with the same name.)  I didn't lose any of the server names/passwords etc I had in the program.  (I guess it stores the information in the registry, or a file somewhere I wasn't able to find.)  I have no clue if the old and new versions of Vent can be installed simultaneously; I didn't even want to go there.
