BUGS & OTHER PROBLEMS:
When bandwidth is exceeded on hlevolve.com website, RSS feeds within the IWC program no longer work. (If this happens, check back on the first of the following month, and everything should be working again [automatically])
Runtime error on maximizing with Dual Monitors or very large resolutions. You may experiance a runtime error (which will immediately close the program) if you maximize the program with a resolution larger than 1024x768. The error has been re-created multiple times on a resolution of 2560x1024. This may also happen if you drag your window to a size larger than 1024x768. Temporary Fix until issue is resolved: Don't maximize or drag your window larger on resolutions over 1024x768.
