Rounded percentages

When calculating percentages of uptime for a monitor, WhatsUp Gold rounds values to the nearest thousandth of one percent. If this rounded value is greater than 99.999 percent, the uptime is displayed as 100% with an asterisk notation to indicate the displayed value is slightly larger than the actual value. The exact amount of downtime can always be seen in the Down time column for the monitor.
