Rounded percentages

When calculating percentages of uptime for a monitor, WhatsUp Gold rounds values to the nearest thousandth of one percent (three decimal places). 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 precise downtime value is always visible in the Down time column for the monitor.
