You didn't mention if you actually managed to log in, or if it would fail (it should fail after you put everything in, and try connecting).

Anyblue, I managed to miss the window borders being included in the pictures, meaning the version string is right there. Ooopsies.

Notice the pictures of the viewer twithout the SqEX account info have '1.18.00n', while the actual current version is '1.18.15e'. So indeed, I suspect the Steam version is broken in that it will install an older version of the PlayOnline Viewer when the user 'verifies the integrity of the game files'.

Someone should report this as a bug, if no one has already. :]

Out of curiosity, I might still try doing the 'check files' via the PlayOnline Viewer itself, to see if that will fix it.
