Please try upgrading to 5.2.

Set to NEEDINFO.
Change back to UNCONFIRMED, if the problem persists. Change to RESOLVED WORKSFORME, if the problem went away.

Upgraded to 5.2.3.3. Problem remains. 

I may uninstall more thoroughly with software like Revo, and reinstall, in the coming days, which I imagine might fix the issue.
