Whoa - a huge jump in strength!
Interestingly enough, I've been using the first version without any problems too.
Not sure why so many are experiencing problems.

It only has problems if you use it in 64 bit mode or use certain obscure features.

There are a few bugs in it yet, but it seems very well written to me.

I am not surprised that it is very strong.
