eMule 0.49b Beta 1

eMule Project - (Open Source)

With eMule is very easy to share any type of file offering many useful features.

eMule is a filesharing client based on the eDonkey2000 network which offers more features than the standard client.

It also allows to connect to the Kad network using the Kademlia protocol. This allows, in particular, operate emule servers. With eMule user can share any type of file (MP3, JPEG, AVI, ZIP, EXE, etc..), and it also offers the possibility to download files that other users make available to the community.

The application has a nice and friendly interface, a fast connection to the server, the automatic removal of "dead" servers in the list, the rank value when placed in a queue and a page of detailed information on the evolution of downloads statistics.

One of the great advantages of this software is that it compresses the data when the transfer is between two eMule client. The gain may be useful in certain formats no or little compressed files.

The software also includes a verification system files to prevent data corruption .

eMule 0.49b BETA1
-----------------------
- Jul, 11. 2008 -
-----------------------
.: Added MiniUPnPLib as additional UPnP implementation, the current Windows service based implementation is used as fallback. This will hopefully make eMule's UPnP compatible to most available routers. [miniupnplib by Thomas Bernard, Test & Suggestion: leuk_he]
.: A specific UPnP implementation can be disabled by adding "DisableMiniUPNPLibImpl=1" or "DisableWinServImpl=1" into the "UPnP" section of the preferences.ini

-----------------------
- Jul, 5. 2008 -
-----------------------
.: When reading a nodes.dat without any verified contacts (possible an old file version), eMule will assume all contacts to be verified to avoid slowing down the connecting process
.: Project files for VS2005 and VS2008 have been added, however the official eMule is still developed and compiled on VS2003

-----------------------
- Jun, 27. 2008 -
-----------------------
.: Several changes were made to Kad in order to defy routing attacks researched by University of Minnesota guys [Peng Wang, James Tyra, Eric Chan-Tin, Tyson Malchow, Denis Foo Kune, Nicholas Hopper, Yongdae Kim], in particular:
.: Kad contacts will only be able to update themself in others routing tables if they provide the proper key (supported by 0.49a+ nodes) in order to make it impossible to hijack them
.: Kad uses now a three-way-handshake (or for older version a similar check) for new contacts, making sure they do not use a spoofed IP
.: Unverified contacts are not used for routing tasks and a marked with a special icon in the GUI

-----------------------
- Jun, 22. 2008 -
-----------------------
.: Fixed: Shared Files window splitter did not properly save/restore position.
.: Did first small step in dropping Kad1 support by not probing unknown Kad contacts for Kad1 anymore to save overhead. Kad1 clients will nevertheless still be work for now.
.: Fixed a bug which let Kad sometimes assume a Kad2 contact to be Kad1 after probing for both versions

-----------------------
- Jun, 18. 2008 -
-----------------------
.: Fixed: Memory leak in context menus.
.: Added: Vista styles for context menus.

-----------------------
- Jun, 12. 2008 -
-----------------------
.: Fixed: Pressing ESC in Shared Files window filter destroyed the entire window.

-----------------------
- Jun, 10. 2008 -
-----------------------
.: Added additional sanitize checks to make sure eMule never writes downloaded data into an already completed part
.: Optimized the Kad packettracking code to only tack packets which we check later, to save ressources

-----------------------
- Jun, 9. 2008 -
-----------------------
.: Fixed 100% CPU usage bug with tooltips in Statistics Graphs.
.: Added: Tooltip in Statistics Graphs show the Y-value.
.: Kad no longer tries to add UDP firewalled (and therefore mostly unreachable) nodes into its routing table, reducing overhead and increasing reliability [Idea: Netfinity]
.: Kad tries to determine the overall ration of firewalled clients in the Kad network and shows them in the statistics tree. This will only work if you are not firewalled yourself and know enough 0.49b+ nodes
.: When calculating the total user count, Kad now uses (if available) the real number of firewalled clients for the calculation instead a fixed value. This will take more effect when 0.49+ nodes become common

-----------------------
- Jun, 5. 2008 -
-----------------------
.: The "Handle eD2k-Links" button now also works properly with Vista's UAC enabled

-----------------------
- May, 31. 2008 -
-----------------------
.: Added: Unshare context menu entries for directories within the virtual "Shared Directories" folder.

-----------------------
- May, 28. 2008 -
-----------------------
.: Added: Vista themes for all owner drawn tab controls.
.: Added: Vista themes for category selector controls.

-----------------------
- May, 25. 2008 -
-----------------------
.: Fixed main toolbar redrawing problems under Vista.
.: Reworked connecting code, fixing some minor and some major bugs, including a possible loop in unreachable DirectCallback sources

-----------------------
- May, 19. 2008 -
-----------------------
.: Added new close icons for closeable tab controls.
.: Kad now ignores multiple IDs pointing to one IP in routing request answers

-----------------------
- May, 18. 2008 -
