Yup, v.3.0.8.6 was buggy for quite a few users (I got lottsa requests for previous versions). I can tell you that the problems experienced varied substantially, user to user. My own problems were pretty much confined to the app freezing before the actual rip began. Sometimes it would take 5-6 attempts to start, sometimes required a reboot. Ultimately I reverted to v.3.0.8.5 Beta and was glitch-free, tried a new install of 3.0.8.6 and was ok...but just temporarily...same freezing issues recurred.

An update to 3.0.9.0 Beta seems to have fixed most users' problems...
