Dear eMule users,

Yes, you read correctly - a new version of eMule is released, coming with the following hightlights:


AICH: a new (additional) hashing system allows eMule to highly improve the corruption detection and handling, leading to less redownload in those cases
Low ID support for the Kad network: A buddy system allow clients with a low ID (firewalled clients) to work in the KAD network
Unicode support: eMule can now handle non standard character sets in the search
Connection test: eMule can check, if your selected ports are working for eMule


changelog:

v0.44a

----------------------
- Sep, 2nd 2004 -
----------------------
Unk: Kad now remembers Kad's last open/firewall state during the recheck process to prevent temporary false reports.
Unk: It now takes two consecutive matching IP responses for Kad to change your current known IP to help filter bad responses.
.: Updated MobileMule protocol to 0.9a (bugfix)
.: Fixed a bug which could lead to a wrong status of obtained parts for downloading clients

----------------------
- Sep, 1th 2004 -
----------------------
.: Added new Dialogpage for creating ED2K Links with of shared and downloading files (replaces old context menue entries)
.: Update ligpng to 1.2.6 to fix security issues (which however had only minor influence on eMule)
.: IP Filter is now also used to ignore filtered incoming UDP packets
.: Added a preference option to choose between simple (prio 0.43) or adanced calculation of the remaining time for downloading files
.: Introduced additional new hashsystem (AICH Hashs) which will reduce the average amount of dataloss when a part is corrupted from
4.64MB (with ICH) to 180KB. The system is most effective when using links with attached AICH hash, which eMule can now also create
Please refer check the helpfiles/onlinehelp for more information about this new feature.
IMPORTANT: Due to the additional hash algorithm, eMule has to rehash all your shared files - this is a one-time thing, which can't be avoided.
