I need to try and roll back my latest SL viewer (1.21) to one released just before, like 1.20.17. Where can I find it?

Thanks!

Is there a way of getting around the "must install new version"?. This is what I get when I try to run these older versions.

There is a workaround, you can add a --channel flag to the command line, but the official versions 1.20.17 and earlier are no longer supported at a lower level than that (they relied on a nonstandard HTTP code that LL deprecated and will eliminate very soon, if they haven't already switched over). Actually the cutoff date is May 8 for that old code, but you may as well get a version now that will work for more than a week!

If you want to run older releases, you will be better off using one of the unofficial versions like the Cool Viewer, and even Nicholaz recently did some updates for the old stuff (while recommending that people look into Cool Viewer). Those will have the patches so you won't have to worry about that HTTP thing.
