   I'd like to read about it, but the release notes included in the
   installer only covers up to CVSNT version 2.5.03 - 2382.

   the signature without checking the revoke list), but we are still
   waiting to find out from you why you cannot connect to Verisign.
   I do not understand why CVSNT "insists" on using the IP-address
   199.7.71.190 to connect to VeriSign, as if the IP-address was
   hard-coded somewhere.

   Yes, and it had no effect.

   The "VerifyTrust" serves a slightly different purpose and was clearly
   described in the release notes.
   Regardless - there is no performance penealty doing this at all - it
   even works when completely disconnected form the internet.  There is
   clearly something odd about your installation - if it's an interaction
   between the "VerifyTrust" code and your install and we can improve it
   in the "VerifyTrust" code then that'd be good to do (eg: by verifying
   the signature without checking the revoke list), but we are still
   waiting to find out from you why you cannot connect to Verisign.  Did
   you try adding the reverse DNS to your hosts file as suggested?
