	properly or if it failed to update.

Known limitations in 4.40
=========================

4.40:01 If viewing the image stream on Mac OS X with Mozilla Firefox or Camino
	using the AXIS Media Java Applet, a third party plugin may be needed to
	get the browser to use the correct Java version. The Java Embedding
	Plugin can be found at http://javaplugin.sourceforge.net/.

4.40:02 When saving a snapshot image, some Web browsers (e.g. Mozilla) will
	fetch a new picture and the saved picture will not match the displayed
	snapshot.

4.40:03 The Mozilla Web browser does not always close the image stream properly
	when leaving the Live View page. Restarting the stream can sometimes
	fail as well. Restarting Mozilla solves these two problems.

4.40:04 Some Korean translations are missing.
