This update includes the following items:

• Error message when viewing product page
  Fixed an issue in which the product.php page would display a database error message in some circumstances when a variable named "cat" was included in the URL of the page.
• Error message when clicking email links
  Fixed an issue in Modular Mailer in which following a link from within an email message received by a user could display an erroneous MySQL error message, instead of the web page they were attempting to view.
• Unrecognized International Characters on Shipping Labels
  Added a function to improve an issue in which some non-western characters would not display correctly when printing shipping labels. Specifically, added functionality to convert a string with ISO-8859-1 characters encoded with UTF-8 to single-byte ISO-8859-1.
• Empty Scheduled Order Editor Screen
  Fixed an issue in which importing a customer using the "Im/Export Cusotmers" tool could result in the customer's account data failing to be loaded into the Scheduled Order Editor screen inf/when a scheduled order was created for the customer.
• SSL Pricing Display in Admin Area
  Improved the display of the SSL certificate pricing in the store's administration area, to better account for potential discounts on SSL certificate renewals.
• Importing Very Large Data Sets
  Updated the product, category, customer and manufacturer import tools to allow a cell in the imported spreadsheet to contain more than 4KB of data. Previously, attempting to import a spreadsheet in which any cell contained more than 4KB of data would result in that cell's data being truncated and a warning message generated.
