There are no more updates for LE2005 - not since 13 July 2006 when

where you are for the moment & then update to 2007 once it is released.

AFPer: Incidentally, do you have strong opinions about the meanings 
of "alternate" and "alternative"?

TP: Yes. I think that pedants should be alternately ignored and 
flamed, unless there is a better alternative.
