Hi,

This is to announce the release of PasswordSafe version 3.09.

This is a minor release - some annoying bugs have been fixed, some minor
features have been added or improved upon.  
Thanks to DK his work on this release, zcecil for his fix, and to the folks
who tested pre-release versions, especially mycroft237.

to more than 99 by typing rather than only by spinbox.

party popup-blockers. Thanks to mrttoo for the heads-up.
