What?!
I can guarantee 1.4 doesn't have a virus, you downloaded it from the scratch website, right? If you got it from anywhere besides scratch.mit.edu that could be your problem.
But if it IS from this website, something's wrong. What happened, did your antivirus go off? I remember a year ago some antivirus program would detect a virus in it, but it wasn't really infected and was fixed by updating. Now if your computer started acting up from downloading it, that's a problem that you seriously need to bring to the scratch team's attention.
I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

Re: Scratch 1.4 is now available!
Neato! I haven't been playing with scratch lately, but this new version looks like it adds some really key features. Ask will be handy for... just about everything, really. Join and the ability to extract letters are perfect for ciphers (secret codes), among other things. And I like the new handling of the comment... thing too.

Re: Scratch 1.4 is now available!
I found some of the updates in 1.4 very helpful, whereas there where some updates that could have been made that where not. I know there are probably time contraints, but they would have been nice. On that note, is there a place where users can make suggestions for 1.5?
Back to 1.4. The robotics control is a cool feature that could allow the creation of a simple HMI... The new sound recorder is a large improvement over the old one, and the text feild sensor also is a major improvement. Good work.

Re: Scratch 1.4 is now available!
Yay! I got it when it came out and it's really good! 
The webcam has great quality, the new blocks help me program, the new question and answer blocks are easy to use and the layout is clearer and neater. Well done Scratch!

Wasn't Scratch 1.4 suppose to have internet linking capabilities?? Archmage's youtube video had two computers linking to each other....

Re: Scratch 1.4 is now available!
Odd, but when I upload projects with the "Ask" block to the website, they don't quite work correctly. Why is this?

What about them does not seem to be working? We have noticed a bug where the prompt text does not always get cleared after the input is typed in. I've reported the bug to the Team. There is a workaround you can do...use the Say block with an empty text string to clear the prompt text.
Are you seeing another problem?

Re: Scratch 1.4 is now available!
We've released a new version of the Java player (v34) that fixes the problem that where the prompt text does not always get cleared. It fixes a number other bugs as well. You may need to quit and restart your browser to get the new version of the applet.
