Version 2.1 has been released recently and replaces the rolling beta
version:
http://www.rsyslog.com/windows-agent/windows-agent-download/

You can just download and install it over your existing installation.

Can properly be solved by changing the Message separation sequence
configuration in your File Monitor.

I would like to handle this issue over adiscon product support. Could be a
configuration issue, or a bug.
