From

P. Schady (UCL-MSSL/PSU), M. Page (UCL-MSSL), A. Cucchiara (PSU),
F. Marshall (GSFC), N. Gehrels (GSFC) on behalf of the Swift/UVOT
team report:

The Swift/UVOT began observing the field of GRB 060105 at 06:50:59
UT on 2006-01-05, 91 s after the BAT trigger (Ziaeepour et al., GCN
4429). No source was observed in any of the UVOT filters at the XRT position 
and the potential candidate mentioned in GCN 4429 is most likely contamination 
from a bright, nearby star. The 3-sigma upper limits in summed images from each 
of the filters are listed below (not corrected for extinction; E(B-V) = 0.171).
