No changes have been made that I know of that would cause that unless you
have your Auto-Skip setting set to "Notify" instead of "Skip".  The Auto-Skip
setting is 3-state now, "Off", "Notify", and "On".  Notify just pops up a
box telling you how long the commercial break is when one starts that way
you can hit or not hit the Z key in case the detection code was off and
detected a 10-minute long commercial break for some reason. :)
