Installed new v. 1.1.1, info still labels it as 1.0.1 - Version: 1.1.1, 2/4/2004 07:18PM PST

That about says it all. Microcosm 1.1.1 was just installed twice successfully. The Decode and Encode componets were installed under Library/Quicktime/ The Preview Icon lists Kind as iView Multimedia Document. However the creation and Modified dates are Sept. 22, 2002 and the version still reads 1.0.1 copyright 2001-2002.

Was this just an oversight? Or is 1.0.1 still installed? This is a G4 with Panther.

Thanks,
