I have Sideview installed, why does SoS ask for it anyway?

i have sideview utils 1.3.5 installed on my search head. I have tried to install 3.0 version of SOS and it constantly prompts for sideview utils installation. am i missing something?

also the SOS TA for Windows is unavailable

Page comes up but i get the following error on download:
Not Found
The requested URL /apps:startdownload/Splunk on Splunk (S.o.S) technology add-on for Windows/2.3.1/TA-SoS_WIN_2.3.1-159515.tar.gz was not found on this server.

Kind of a guess but has someone gone into app.conf for Sideview Utils and modified it to make it not list itself in any of the "app" pulldowns? That's the usual culprit in these cases. Unfortunately changing that means the SoS app can't see it either.
