The DX4WIN country file, DX4WIN.CTY Release #136 is available from:
http://www.country-files.com/dx4win-info/
You can read the release notes at:
http://www.country-files.com/dx4win-cty-136-30-August-2014/
This is an abbreviated version of the release notes. To see the full
list of changes, click on the [download] link at the URL above, and
read the release.txt document included therein. It's almost 1000 lines.
You can (and should) use the DX4WIN Data Updater to update the file:

If you are tracking IOTA, the RSGB released a new list of all the IOTA
islands, including the new ones that were added at the IOTA 50th
Anniversary Conference in July 2014. This will allow you to populate
the "IOTA Island" field in your logbook for the new IOTA. If you use
the updater, you will automatically get the new file.
This is another huge release, meant to get more in-sync with the
callsign and prefix data on ClubLog.org. There is still work to
be done, but we are making progress.
There may be new errors (I know of at least one, who will find it?),
so let me know about them ASAP.
