v4.2.0.0-PRO
+ Smoother scrolling - Replaced the setTimeout function with the requestAnimationFrame method. This method is a much better fit for animations. It calls a function to update the animation before the next repaint, which can be up to 60 times per second, but will automatically adjust to the most suitable frame rate.
+ Use a CSS fading effect to scroll to the top when the end of the scroller has been reached.
+ The installation script has been updated to include a check for the highest compatible version of Joomla! to avoid any problems caused by using incompatible core versions.
+ Added Pro Security Token validation check. The Pro package contains a token file with an individual security token linked to the user account and checked against the validation server for authenticity.
^ Multiple internal code optimisations.
