Has something changed with Bible searching?

Today (using Windows Logos 4) I did a simple Bible search and was surprised to see in results from Bel and the Dragon and 1st/2nd Maccabees. (Search All Bible Text in All Passages in Top Bibles.) It shows a null symbol rather than box in the 5 top bibles (NIV, ESV, NLT, NASB95, NRSV), and says "Not present in NIV"

I've never gotten results from Apocrypha before, and I'm not doing anything different than normal.

If I change the search to "Entire Bible" it still gives these results - which bothers me.
I thought there might be a program settings option to change what is considered Entire Bible, but did not see it. The workaround is to choose "Old and New Testament", but I basically don't ever want to see apocryphal results in a Bible search.

Is this new behavior, a new resource that slipped in unnoticed, or have I simply not been awake enough to notice this before? Is there a setting option I'm missing to fix this?
