Issue: The third-party applications that support automation through MSAA have incorrect parent and child structure. DotNetSSO attempts to recognize the structure of the application’s webpage to address specific controls. This causes DotNetSSO to perform large or infinite tasks.
Fix: With this release of SecureLogin, issue with DotNetSSO is fixed and now third-party applications can be single sign-on enabled without issues. (Bug 858900)
