Plus I backup my wallet every new version just to make sure it'll always work as an intended.

Ok, when I install the new version, it will sync up and download my balances, right?
I'm just nervous.. I've got some decent balances in there now...

No need to get nervous .. all balances are safe.. you just need to update your local database (blockchain) to the global state :)

Thanx in advance for confirmation on this..
 
Also, where do I download 0.8.1 (rather than 0.8.0)??

You can't use 0.6.x anymore. Due to the changes in the market engine in 0.7 and 0.8 your client will arrive at a different market state than the other delegates after applying transactions, and at some point it will get stuck because processing new transactions with that invalid state will no longer be possible.
Please upgrade.

You will have to upgrade to at least 0.8.0 (its a mandatory upgrade) older versions will not work.

It's 7 connections right now, won't go any higher. Should I use the console to add more connections or something?
I'd rather not upgrade till 0.10.0 is out next month.
lmk, please and thanx :)
