Actually, I believe that you've found another bug. When you said:

"T928.3.0.1953 when I run the program, but as T603.3.0.1933 when I use "spacebar" from the screen saver (or "settings" from SS settings)."

I thought: "Oh, no - Registry". It turns out that the string (VersionStr it's called) is stored in multiple places in the Registry. Apparently, something (perhaps the installer) got some of those different from others -- and then the software apparently gets the VersionStr from different places, depending on whether it's running in SS or Simulation "mode". [That's a great leap in assumption space, of course]

So, either this should be copied to a new thread - or this thread should be labeled "Bug".

==============

By the way, I'm still interested in whether any of your installations actually takes you to the Nova website when you click that button. And if so, what version that is.

==============

For reference, I have two W7-32 systems that I'm looking at, one with each of the two download "versions".
